Proposition 314 results: "Secure the Border Act" passes
 
Arizona voters passed a ballot measure that will make illegal border crossings a state crime, AP projects.

The big picture: Proposition 314 will make it a state crime to cross into Arizona from Mexico anywhere except an official port of entry, which is a provision based on a similar Texas law.
 
It will also require state and local governments to use federal systems to determine whether noncitizens are eligible to apply for public benefits.

And it will impose stiff prison sentences for selling fentanyl that causes someone's death.
Between the lines: Republican lawmakers referred the measure, known as the Secure the Border Act, to the ballot.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
