Whether you’re for it or against it, everyone has an opinion about Immigration. In 2010, the Governor of Arizona passed a controversial state law that would give every Arizona law enforcement the power to ask any citizen their immigration status and help deport illegals, a power vested solely in our Federal Government.
When this law was signed, the Department of Justice sued, arguing that AZ had no authority to pass such law and won a temporary injunction the day before the law was to take effect. Now, the ball is on Arizona’s side of the court, and they are counter-suing the federal government, pointing out their shortfalls in implementing and sustaining border control.
This ping-pong of law suits is unprecedented regarding Immigration Laws. It is really worth trying to keep up with it from political, constitutional, legal and civil rights points of view. This issue will create a legal precedent that can potentially affect, if not you, someone you personally know. Who’s gonna win this rally?
