Have you read the Arizona law?
Eric Holder, the US Attorney General is considering a lawsuit to challenge the constitutionality of Arizona’s new law allowing police to ask for citizenship for people stopped for criminal activity. When asked in a congressional committee whether he had read the law, he said he had not.
Our AG is opposed to a law he has not read. This makes sense. A state is trying to make use of the tenth amendment and take responsibility for a problem that is harmful to its citizens. The federal government does not want this problem dealt with because the problem causes the federal government to have to increase in size to deal with all the fallout this problem creates. Actually dealing with the problem would not be beneficial to the federal bureaucracy.
Have you read the law? Below is the text of the law. For more information, here is a nice long article describing the law and the problem it confronts?
Take the poll to tell us whether you agree with this law.
In a nutshell, the Arizona law says if you have a criminal in custody, before you let him go you need to check his immigration status. How hard is that? How bad is that? Why does that tick off the elitist pinheads of the progressive party?
