Arizona Is Now Recognized As A Premier Place In Which To Locate, Expand And Grow A Business.

Arizona, Our Beautiful State, Was Built On Mining. Copper Is Huge Here, And Now Uranium. And Then We Have The Federal Government Coming In, Writing All These Rules And Regulations And Telling Us That We Can't Do This And We Can't Do That. We Need Concise, Clear Answers.

But The People Of Arizona, The People Of America, Have Been Promised That Our Borders Would Be Secured For Years And Years And Years, With It Not Happening.
