Three City Council Members Issue Statement of Solidarity with Nogales, Arizona on Border Issue
Posted February 8, 2019 
https://cms3.tucsonaz.gov/newsnet/three-city-council-members-issue-statement-solidarity-nogales-arizona-border-issue 
Ward 6 Tucson City Council Member Steve Kozachik, 
Vice Mayor Richard Fimbres (Ward 5), and 
Ward 1 City Council Member Regina Romero 
announced today that they are in full support of the Feb. 5 vote taken by the Nogales Mayor and Council 
calling for the removal of the concertina wire that has been placed along the border fencing running through downtown Nogales.
"The City of Tucson joins Nogales in embracing the cultural heritage we share with Mexico,"
 the three said in the memo of support. 
"We similarly join the citizens of Nogales in recognizing the economic importance of maintaining cross-border commercial ties. 
And we join our colleagues on the Nogales City Council in condemning the actions of the Trump administration
 that are sending a clear message of division and fear between our communities and our neighbors in Sonora."
END
