STATEMENT OF MAYOR MICHAEL R. BLOOMBERG ON SENATE PASSAGE OF $600 MILLION MEASURE TO SECURE THE U.S. – MEXICAN BORDER

“It is encouraging to see Senators from both sides of the aisle – led by Chuck Schumer, Claire McCaskill and John McCain – working together to pass a bill that provides more resources, better technology and more agents to strengthen security at our borders. We hope this bipartisan effort will prove to be a building block for a pragmatic and sensible approach to fixing our nation’s broken immigration system, so that we can create the jobs we need now and keep America economically competitive for decades to come.”
