Arizona Presents Countersuit Against Obama Admin |
"This case has implications for every state and every U.S. citizen concerned about our nation's security." - AZ Governor Jan Brewer Fellow Patriot, Yesterday, attorneys representing the State of Arizona reiterated the state's substantial claims against the federal government for its continued failure to secure the border. Oral arguments were made before a U.S. District Court Judge regarding the countersuit filed in February as a response to the fed's on-going legal challenge to SB 1070 - Arizona's tough as nails crackdown on illegal immigration that has proven effective in detering illegal immigration within the state. Despite the Obama Administration's request that the counterclaim be dismissed, no decision has been issued and AZ Gov. Jan Brewer is confident the case will proceed. Arizona's counterclaim is based on five fundamental points: (i) the federal goverment has failed to gain "operational control of the border," as required by federal law; (ii) failed to enforce federal immigration law; (iii) failed to protect Arizona from harms associated with illegal immigration; (iv) been negligent in reimbursing Arizona for more than $760 million in costs for incarcerating illegal immigrants; (v) sought to pre-empt the state from protecting the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens. Arizona is leading the way for other states to hold the federal government responsible for upholding its Constitutional duty to secure the border. And we're here to help Arizona every step of the way. Arizona's countersuit against the pro-Amnesty Obama Administration is just one step Arizona is taking to protect our country from the continued onslaught of illegal immigration draining our resources and taking our jobs. Having lost patience waiting for Washington to act, Arizona recently launched a website to raise private donations in order to build a border fence to keep illegal immigrants from simply tip-toeing across the desert and into our neighborhoods. If they raise enough money, all that’s left to obtain is cooperation from landowners where the fence would go. With your help, construction in every border state could begin as soon as THIS YEAR. It’s up to you and I to support Arizona’s rise to action against illegal immigration be it in court defending state's rights or physically securing our border with Mexico. We can’t count on Washington to secure our border – definitely not with Obama at the helm - but we can count on Arizona. As Arizona battles it out with the Obama Administration in court, we're helping Arizona secure the border and secure our economy. Will you help us?
