Representative Rob Bishop issued a statement following the signing of President Trump’s Executive Order on immigration. “I am relieved to know that these family separation issues are being addressed,” shared Bishop. “I stand ready to pass legislation that will enhance border security and give due respect to the family unit. Security and compassion are not mutually exclusive. These problems stemmed from legal uncertainty. I look forward to working with my colleagues in the ongoing effort to solve this problem the right way.” Bishop has submitted language included in the proposed Reform Acts. His provision removes impediments to the Border Patrol as they defend the borders and execute certain search and rescue operations.
