Group Letter in Support of Sen. Ron Wyden’s Amendment to the Immigration Reform Bill

Senator Ron Wyden has filed an amendment (SB1318) to the Senate’s immigration reform bill that would address the terrible impacts the Real ID Act of 2005 has had on the lands, wildlife and the people who live along the border. His amendment removes sections in the bill that allow for excess border fencing, provide unnecessary exemptions from NEPA and dozens of other laws that protect wildlife, antiquities and important landscapes and grant Border Patrol immediate access to all Federal lands within 100 miles of the border in Arizona.
