In the first two letters, Ros in Melbourne and Allan in Vero Beach expressed concern with what is being done to fix our broken immigration system. Ros asked Rubio to work with Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) federal agency to ensure that we secure our border and Allan asked for simple solutions to major immigration problems such as border security and guest workers.
