His message while on the tour: Yuma is safe, secure and ready for business. To read the full article from the Yuma Sun, please click here.

As part of this Homeland Security Tour, Mayor Krieger was also invited to speak in early April on a panel following a key note speech from Napolitano in Washington, D.C. The address focused on the Administration's vision for a "21st Century Border," and also touched on the progress being made nationwide in effectively enforcing U.S. immigration law, and the steps taken to ensure the strength and integrity of the entire immigration system.
