Cochise County rancher Warner Glenn, whose family has ranched along the U.S.-Mexico border for 100 years, testifies that Gabrielle Giffords is fighting to secure our border.

Since taking office in 2007, Gabrielle has been one of the strongest advocates in Congress for securing the border and fixing our broken immigration system. Along with border representatives from both parties, she has fought to:

• Secure the border through measures such as doubling the number of Border Patrol officers and deploying National Guard troops to the Arizona sectors of the border.
• Break down the power of Mexican drug cartels by blocking the flow of money they receive and increasing prison sentences for those who smuggle drugs across the border.
• Punish employers who hire illegal workers in Arizona and throughout the US.
