PHOENIX — When it comes to the immigration debate, it’s difficult to find anywhere it’s more fiercely debated than the Internet.
In an effort to push for immigration reform, Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake and Sen. John McCain joined an online movement called The March for Innovation designed to get people on social media demanding comprehensive immigration reform.
The page encourages users to Facebook, tweet and call their senators to encourage them to vote for immigration reform.
In just a few days, the site has generated nearly 16,000 interactions on social media.
