Jay Inslee in CBS "Face the Nation" interviews during 2019

On Immigration: Illegal immigration not a national emergency

We do not have a national security emergency. Donald Trump has a political emergency. He was unable to get Mexico to pay for his wall. He does not have the support of either party and the entire U.S. Congress on a bipartisan basis have told him his wall is a colossal mistake. He ought to be responding to real emergencies like the forest fires. Climate change is burning down our forests. That's an emergency where we ought to have the help of the federal government. We don't have it. Source: CBS Face the Nation 2019 interviews: 2020 Democratic primary Feb 24, 2019
