“Pete Ricketts is respected by everybody in Washington, Mr. President, you know that the most important thing government does is keep people safe. Sadly, yesterday we had a reminder why it's so important that we have a secure border. Yesterday in Douglas county, an illegal immigrant ran a red light and killed a grandfather, 70 year old Christopher Sakowski.
