One of America's national organizations fighting against illegal immigration is announcing that 17 states are now filing versions of Arizona's SB 1070 law which is designed to help local police enforce America's existing immigration laws.

Numerous national and local polls indicated that 60-81% of Americans support local police enforcing immigration laws.

"Our national network of activists have been working overtime trying to help the state of Arizona and the brave Arizonans who have passed this bill," said William Gheen, President of Americans for Legal Immigration PAC. "Arizona no longer stands alone and we have now documented state lawmakers filing, or announcing they will file, versions of the Arizona bill in seventeen states! We will not stop until all states are protected from invasion as required by the US Constitution."

ALIPAC has documented the following 17 states are following Arizona's lead in response to citizen pressure.

ARKANSAS, IDAHO, INDIANA, MARYLAND, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA, MISSOURI, NEBRASKA, NEVADA, NEW JERSEY, OHIO, OKLAHOMA, PENNSYLVANIA, RHODE ISLAND, SOUTH CAROLINA, TEXAS, UTAH

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) has helped to pass some form of immigration enforcement legislation in over 30 states, while the group has also gained a national reputation for defeating legislation designed to give licenses, in-state tuition, and other taxpayer benefits to illegal aliens in 20 states.

ALIPAC's President, William Gheen is a former campaign consultant, Legislative Assistant, state lobbyist, and Assistant Sgt-At-Arms staffer in North Carolina who has turned his local experiences into a political battle plan by driving the national operations of ALIPAC.

"The Federal government has been hijacked by special interests that are neglectful of their duties and even hostile towards the rightful citizens of America," said William Gheen. "It is incumbent upon our states to protect American lives, property, jobs, wages, security, and health, when the Executive Branch fails to honor its Constitutional responsibility to do so by enforcing our existing border and immigration laws."

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC lobbied state lawmakers and AZ Governor Jan Brewer to pass SB 1070, which strictly prohibits racial profiling while empowering local police officers to enforce immigration laws.

ALIPAC's activists have been working for almost four weeks now to encourage state lawmakers across the nation to file versions of SB 1070, to help alleviate boycotts and other political antagonism towards Arizona. Citizen activist are being asked to call, e-mail, visit, and fax their state lawmakers to encourage them to support existing SB 1070 type bills or to file them as soon as possible.

Need to bring this to California and Florida. Make it a ballot issue, watch it pass!

I see NC is MIA on this list, I suppose I'm not surprized even though I email "Bev" and Burr and Hagan almost daily!

AWESOME NEWS!!!!

I am pleased to read about this. However, these states can draw up any laws they want. They MUST enforce them! These laws still have to be enforced! We have immigration laws already on the federal law books. However, obviously, with a pandering "apologist" as our president and a "traitor" as the speaker; this is what we must do. The states MUST enforce these laws regardless of what the "comrade chairman and the comrades" will do to punish these states.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am pleased to inform everyone of you that this press release has already been mentioned in the first hour of Sean Hannity's Radio show today.

Hannity said that According to Americans for legal Immigration PAC that there are 17 other states are getting ready to do the same legislature, that from FoxNews.

so This press release has had its effect already

I heard Hannity talk about it too and he specifically mentioned ALIPAC.

Lets get many more states involved and fight this illegal alien scourge togetherl. Unfortunately a lot of of us in the US have become too complacent with the issue of illegal aliens. I believe that a lot of us even feel sorry for them; but we can't afford to feel anything for these parasites other than contempt because the illegals want nothing more than to bring our country down. Just look at what they've done to their own third-world country! Nothing but drug trafficing and daily mass killings in Juarez, right across the bridge from El Paso, Texas. We need strike fear into this nemisis!

I am so glad to see Maryland on the list!
