Arizona Gov. Ducey backs Trump on 'short as possible' Mexico border closureWashington Examiner, Apr 3, 2019
Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey offered rare Republican support Wednesday for President Trump's threat to close the Mexico border if Congress doesn't pass comprehensive immigration reform.
"I think our trade with Mexico is extremely important, but border security comes first," Ducey told reporters on the White House driveway after meeting with Trump.
Ducey said that Trump has not made a decision, but that if he does close the border, "we would be supportive of it — and want it to be as short as possible."
He added: "Why doesn't Congress just act and we can solve the whole issue?" Ducey said he wants funds for border security, more money for nonprofits, and legal changes to remove "incentives" to migrants.
