Arizona Passes Ballot Measure Authorizing Arrest, Deportation of Illegal Immigrants
Story by David Zimmermann • 1h


An overwhelming number of Arizona voters backed a GOP ballot measure, which authorizes local law enforcement and state judges to respectively arrest and deport illegal immigrants who cross the southern border outside official ports of entry.

With 59 percent of the votes counted, the Associated Press estimated nearly 63 percent of Arizonans voted in favor of Proposition 314 to make illegal immigration a state crime. The proposition also makes it illegal for people to provide false information when applying for benefits or employment, and for those who refuse to comply with authorities when ordered to leave the U.S.
 
Moreover, it strengthens penalties for criminals who sell fentanyl which causes the death of the consumer.

In June, Republican lawmakers in the Arizona legislature passed a resolution that sent the proposition to the ballot for Election Day. Proponents of the law said it was necessary for the state government to curb record levels of illegal immigration and the smuggling of fentanyl because the Biden administration has failed to do so.

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

As is always the case, what is on paper and what liberals enforce are not necessarily one and the same.  Remember, Imam Obama said if a person in power doesn't like a law, he/she doesn't have to enforce it. :pondering:

Good for you, Arizona.

Just pre-empting the liberal indignation ...

Those mean-spirited, hate-mongering, racist, xenophobic, white-supremacist, deplorable, Nazi, islands of garbage.

... that's the problem with "Democracy", they let the unwashed masses vote.

We had a LOT of Props on the AZ ballots this election, and this is the first I've heard about any of them.  Slow count, dontcha know.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
And now with a Trump DOJ, hopefully they will argue that if the Feds abandon their duties to defend the border, States can do so, and maybe even get a favorable court ruling out of it.
The Republic is lost.
