More Arizona Style Anti-Immigrant Laws. Look for the U.S. Supreme Court to rule against Arizona’s “show-me-your-papers” law (SB 1070). The primary issue is whether immigration enforcement is a federal responsibility. Unfortunately, this will not stop Republican majorities in deep red states from trying to pass similar legislation designed to limit access to college and other benefits by the undocumented.
So far the courts have thrown out 6 of the 8 law sueds against SB 1070 and have also thrown parts of the two remaining. States rights are what they are in other words you can make being in the country illegally a Felony offense first time meaning automatic deportation. This is the toughest fight of any other happening right now along with the Arizona senator Pearce who has never lost one case yet on immigration and put up a birth right citizenship bill last week that does not affect the 14 amendment. Again if you want immigration reform and Dream Act policies you should want no more birth right citizenship because this is what scares the voters. Predicament for 2011 is court battles this is where it should be fought in the first place. Court battles need no politicians or president or anything put the request up against the constitution and see if it wins if so there is nothing anyone can do to stop it. If it does not not hold up all of it or parts of it then it will be shot down all this political nonsense is playing people for votes and not getting any real solutions.
