Diaz-Balart: Conservatives Are Fed Up With Washington’s Inaction

WASHINGTON – Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL) released the following statement after Sal Russo, the co-founder of Tea Party Express, publicly supported immigration reform.

"It is clear that conservatives understand that we cannot continue to have a system with porous borders that hurts our economy and threatens our national security interests. The American people, and conservatives in particular, are fed up with Washington's inaction. I'm pleased with Mr. Russo's support on this issue, and today's announcement is one more demonstration that we must strengthen our borders, respect the rule of law, modernize our antiquated visa system, and bolster the economy."
