Tohono O’odham Leaders Meet With Interior Secretary Zinke During Border Visit

Secretary Zinke toured the Arizona-Mexico border and spoke in support of President Trump's wall.

Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke toured the border for the first time this month since joining the Trump administration and reaffirmed his support for the president's plan to build a wall. His visit also included a meeting with leaders of the Tohono O'odham Nation, who oppose the wall.

For insight into what transpired during that meeting, Chairman Edward Manuel appeared on Arizona 360 to address the tribe's concerns about border security and the impact a wall could have on its land.
