    A federal appeals court backed up an Arizona law to punish

    A federal appeals court backed up an Arizona law to punish employers that hire illegal immigrants.

    Ninth Circuit upholds Arizona employer sanctions law

    http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/stor ... ily34.html

    The U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed lower court rulings that kept the Legal Arizona Workers Act in place. Business groups and Hispanic activists had challenged the law in court saying it lacks due process provisions and puts the state and county prosecutors in the federal role of enforcing immigration laws.

    The sanctions law allows county prosecutors to go after businesses that knowingly hire illegal immigrants and employers caught doing that can have their business licenses suspended or revoked.

    The San Francisco-based appeals court backed up a U.S. District Court ruling that said federal immigration laws allow states to take action against the business licenses of employers caught hiring illegals.

    need to spread this word around to all those pro-immigrant groups that keep whining about state governments doing the job that the federal government is only allowed to do. It is everyones OBLIGATION to help enforce the laws of this country. Whether you be a citizen or law enforcement officer for state or local or federal levels. You just don't ignore wrong doings.
