WASHINGTON — U.S. Rep. Chris Collins, R-Clarence, issued a statement this afternoon expressing support for President Donald Trump’s Executive Order on immigration.
Collins, the first member of Congress to endorse Trump’s presidential bid and a liaison between Congress and the Trump administration, said the president is sticking by his campaign promise to keep America safe.
Collins’ full statement follows:
“Nothing is more important than the safety and security of our communities here in Western New York,” said Congressman Collins. “Temporarily suspending the admittance of refugees and individuals from high-risk countries until we can guarantee they are properly vetted is a common-sense measure focused on protecting Americans. President Trump promised to make America safe again and his executive order aims to ensure we know who is entering our country.”
