Thread: Napolitano :Administration Will Review Arizona Immig law

Secretary Napolitano Testifies Administration Will Review Arizona Immigration Law

Newswire ServicesMay 02, 2010

WASHINGTON -- At a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano said the Justice Department will review the recently passed Arizona anti-immigrant law.

The Arizona law is the most extreme anti-immigrant law in the country, requiring law enforcement to question individuals about their immigration status during everyday police encounters, creating new immigration crimes and penalties inconsistent with those in federal law, asserting sweeping authority to detain and transport persons suspected of violating civil immigration laws and prohibiting speech and other expressive activity by persons seeking work. Secretary Napolitano stated that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has deep concerns with the law's effects and that such broad immigration enforcement may detract and siphon resources away from ICE's priority of focusing on the most serious criminals.


The American Civil Liberties Union fiercely opposes the Arizona law, believing it will result in racial and ethnic profiling and alienate immigrant communities from cooperating with the police.

"If there's ever a time for the Obama administration to step in and take a stand for fairness and equality, the time is now. We call on the Obama administration to take every step within its power to make sure this abhorrent, discriminatory law never takes effect," says ACLU staff attorney Omar Jadwat.

“I am for socialism, disarmament, and ultimately, for abolishing the state itself as an instrument of violence and compulsion. I seek social ownership of property, the abolition of the properties class, and sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal. It all sums up into one single purpose — the abolition of dog-eat-dog under which we live. I don’t regret being part of the communist tactic. I knew what I was doing. I was not an innocent liberal. I wanted what the communists wanted and I traveled the United Front road to get it.â€

What the hell does she call human smugglers and rapists and murders who are running rampant in Arizona? This woman needs to go home and bake cookies.

The Arizona law is the most extreme anti-immigrant law in the country

Sorry, Janet, you're wrong. The Arizona law IS the law of the country, not just Arizona. If you had any intention of enforcing our immigration laws, you would know what they are.

What a blatant propagandistic piece of hubris this article is!

The Arizona law is the most extreme anti-immigrant law in the country,

It would seem from this piece of hubris that ICE's job is not just enforcing immigration laws, all of them, but to focus on the most serious criminals. Thus stating that if a illegal is quiet and stays in the shadows then ICE will not come after them!

and,

The American Civil Liberties Union fiercely opposes the Arizona law, believing it will result in racial and ethnic profiling and alienate immigrant communities

How disgusting! Not once was the word or the concept of illegal used. What a bunch of disgusting thugs,.... parasitic intestinal tract worms have more integrity than the author(s) of this piece of hubris pretending to be worthy of publishing!

Goebbels would be proud!
