David Gowan, R-Sierra Vista, said that in 30 years of living near the border, he has not seen immigration as bad as he says it is today. Gowan was in Washington to meet with federal lawmakers on the issue. (Photo by Adrienne Washington/Cronkite News) GOWAN, OTHER OFFICIALS COME TO WASHINGTON TO PLEAD FOR BORDER ACTION Adrienne Washington Cronkite News//November 9, 2023// * * * * * Listen to this article In all the time he’s lived near the border, Sen. David Gowan, R-Sierra Vista, said he has never seen an immigration crisis as bad as the one he’s seeing now. “It’s the highest incursion we’ve had since I’ve lived down there,” said Gowan, who has lived in Cochise County for 30 years. That was the message that Gowan and a handful of local officials and activists from across the country hoped to deliver to members of Congress while in Washington this week. As Terrell County, Texas, Sheriff Thad Cleveland said, it’s not just a problem for border states. “In Terrell County, we don’t have a crime problem. We’ve got a national security problem,” Cleveland said at the Wednesday event organized by the Federation for American Immigration Reform. The event comes at a time when migrant encounters at the southern border have reached historic highs. Customs and Border Protection said that a record 2.47 million migrants were encountered at the southern border in fiscal 2023, which ended in September. Data from October is not yet available from CBP. The data also showed that the Tucson sector, which encompasses most of the state’s border with Mexico, saw the highest number of encounters of any CBP sector for the last three months of the fiscal year. A total of 373,625 migrants were encountered in the Tucson sector for all of fiscal 2023, the third-highest sector for the whole year. The Yuma sector, which covers the rest of Arizona’s border with Mexico, recorded a total of 174,201 encounters for the year, according to CBP. Gowan said he and the others came to Washington to share the reality of the southern border with members of Congress. “The interior states, we need to get to those congressmen, tell them what’s happening down there, what’s happening with the people on the ground, how we need aid to our police forces. You know, certainly our sheriff offices,” Gowan said. Gowan said in an interview after the conference that he is not against immigration, but he wants to ensure those who enter the country do so legally and are carefully vetted. “I believe in legal immigration. So we have ports of entry and that’s where the legal immigration process should start,” he said. “Not just crossing the border and breaking the laws already, but that’s … at a lower level than what the cartels are doing.” In addition to citing the surging numbers of migrants, Gowan and others at the event repeated stories of drug and human trafficking they said are coming across the border. “The drugs and the smuggling that they’re bringing across is the highest we’ve ever seen. And 50% of the fentanyl comes across our border right there, that’s bad for us. That’s bad for our nation,” he said. “So at least some of them (migrants), a lot of them are up here and they’re, they’re criminals themselves. That’s what we’re seeing.” But an attorney for the Southern Border Communities Coalition called that sort of rhetoric typical of the type of “dehumanizing language” used to “demonize” migrants. “I think that there is a human right to migration, there is a human right to be treated with respect … regardless of what the numbers of migration are in any given day,” said Ricky Garza, the attorney. Garza said migration “would run a lot smoother” if asylum seekers were able to “go to the ports of entry and actually make a claim as they’re obligated to do under international law.” “But instead, we’ve seen all these artificial roadblocks and limits being thrown up and it can only be this many number of people a day (entering the U.S.) and – that really has no basis in international law,” he said. They did not offer specific solutions to what they called the immigration crisis, but most of the speakers at Wednesday’s event blamed the Biden administration. Cleveland said it’s not the fault of one administration or another, but that something that needs to be figured out to address the national issue. “This is a solvable problem,” said Cleveland, who spent 25 years working for Border Patrol. “It doesn’t matter if you’re Democrat or Republican, we need to fix this.” SHARE THIS: * Click to print (Opens in new window) * Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) * Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window) * Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window) * Tags: immigration process, Mexico, asylum seekers, gowan, Tucson, Biden Administration, border, ports of entry, Southern Border Communities Coalition, Border Patrol, Cochise County Share this! * * * * * RELATED CONTENT TAP WATER IS CHEAP, BUT OLD PIPES, A SHRINKING COLORADO COULD CHANGE THAT With infrastructure that is aging and needs replacement, municipal water departments in the Colorado River bas[...] November 10, 2023 FORMER ARIZONA SENATOR REPORTS BEING MOLESTED WHILE RUNNING IN IOWA A former United States senator from Arizona has said she was molested while jogging along the Missouri River i[...] November 10, 2023 FIGHTING FIRE WITH FIRE: HOW PRESCRIBED BURNS PROTECT FORESTS IN NORTHERN ARIZONA The Kendrick Prescribed Fire Project was one of the first of many prescribed burns this fall and winter throug[...] November 8, 2023 OFFICIALS CONFIDENT ABOUT TUESDAY VOTING, FEEL GOOD FOR LONG-TERM OUTLOOK Local elections across Arizona on Tuesday could be a low-level test of voting systems stressed by years of thr[...] November 7, 2023 TIMELESS ICONS TO JOIN RISING STARS FOR CAPITOL TIMES HONORS We have added Timeless Icons based upon feedback from many of you around recognizing individuals that our “C[...] November 7, 2023 CALIFORNIANS BET FARMING AGAVE FOR SPIRITS HOLDS KEY TO WEATHERING DROUGHT AND GROUNDWATER LIMITS Leo Ortega started growing spiky blue agave plants on the arid hillsides around his Southern California home b[...] November 6, 2023 ARIZONA DAILY NEWSLETTER Sign up for your daily digest of Arizona enter your business email * select Select your industry Business Services Charitable Organizations & Foundations Construction Education Energy, Utilities & Waste Finance Government Healthcare Hospitals & Clinics Law Firms & Legal Services Manufacturing Media & Internet Membership Organizations Real Estate Other Sign Up * By signing up you agree to our * Privacy Policy RECENT NEWS Previous FONTES, OTHER OFFICIALS TELL SENATE PANEL OF ONGOING THREATS TO ELECTIONS Death threats, poisoned pets, disinformation campaigns, bulletproof glass in election offices and fa[...] TAP WATER IS CHEAP, BUT OLD PIPES, A SHRINKING COLORADO COULD CHANGE THAT With infrastructure that is aging and needs replacement, municipal water departments in the Colorado[...] FORMER ARIZONA SENATOR REPORTS BEING MOLESTED WHILE RUNNING IN IOWA A former United States senator from Arizona has said she was molested while jogging along the Missou[...] GOWAN, OTHER OFFICIALS COME TO WASHINGTON TO PLEAD FOR BORDER ACTION In all the time he’s lived near the border, Sen.
