On Tuesday, senior Senator John McCain of Arizona faced a town hall in Sun Lakes, a suburb of Phoenix, not thrilled by his work on immigration reform.

Although immigration reform is now a bipartisan issue, seen as a political must for lawmakers, some of McCain’s constituents in Arizona are not pleased with his recent support of reform.

Channel 12 News in Phoenix captured an exchange between McCain and an Arizona man who reminded the senator, “you said 'build the ‘dang fence.’ Where’s the fence?”
