EXCERPT:

HOBBS: “We’ve already paid $12 million in taxpayer dollars for these shipping containers, which is nothing more than a political stunt, and we need real solutions. It’s why two border sheriffs have endorsed my border plan, which will direct meaningful resources into their communities to help ensure that they’re able to keep their residents safe, and then we need to work with the federal government to implement the solutions that are right for Arizonans.”

REPORTER: “So, would you comply with the request to remove them?”

HOBBS: “I think — I would do it to save the legal battle that’s going to ensue if we don’t.”
