Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) has released the letter she gave to President Obama during a tense confrontation on Wednesday.

In the letter, Brewer writes that she and Obama “fundamentally disagree on how to best make America grow and prosper once again.”

She then invites Obama  to visit the border with her and then discuss over lunch the "hard choices" Arizona has made.

Brewer had previously said she would not release the handwritten letter but reversed her decision as the fight with Obama gained more media attention.

Brewer gave Obama the letter just as he got off of Air Force One during his visit to Phoenix, Arizona. The two got into an argument over Brewer's description in her book "Scorpions for Breakfast" of a meeting she had with Obama at the White House.

In her book, Brewer writes that Obama "lectured" her on border security and immigration during the meeting. Immediately after the meeting, however, Brewer h! ad described it as a cordial meeting to reporters.
