This border does not have to be wide open. We don't have to have the cartels in control. We can change this. I'll tell you what, 27,000 pounds, imagine what that is. 27,000 pounds of fentanyl, the last fiscal year was seized and half of it was seized right here in Arizona. I'm not okay with that. I don't want Arizona being the pipeline for fentanyl. And so we're going to stop it. I'm going to do everything in my power to stop the scourge of fentanyl poisoning. (04:05–04:14)
