Gov. Brewer on Twitter: “I will not stop fighting. I will defend AZ and continue to do the job Obama refuses to do.”
The Obama Regime is suing the state of Arizona on behalf of “The United States of America” — that is, the citizens of the US — and they are using our tax dollars to finance this lawsuit.
The Justice Department’s suit against Arizona does not charge “discrimination”
It doesn’t even mention the word. It doesn’t mention the word “Nazi” either. Perhaps the racists in the White House actually read the law.
ABC News — As widely anticipated, Attorney General Eric Holder today filed a lawsuit against Arizona and Gov. Jan Brewer over the state’s immigration law. The suit seeks a preliminary injunction to stop the law from being implemented.
The court filing states that Arizona law is pre-empted by federal law and therefore violates the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution.
The filing makes no assertion that the law is discriminatory or risks being applied in a discriminatory fashion, as the president and other officials said they feared would be the case. Interestingly, this suit makes no civil rights charges against the Arizona law. . . .
“The State of Arizona has crossed this constitutional line,” write Assistant Attorney General Tony West, United States Attorney Dennis K. Burke and others. “In acknowledged disagreement with the manner in which the federal government has regulated immigration and in contravention of these constitutional principles. . . The states are not permitted to set their own independent immigration policies, with varying and potentially conflicting enforcement systems and priorities. Were a number of states to act as Arizona has and strike out on their own, federal immigration policy and enforcement efforts would be crippled.”
The suit states that the Arizona law pursues only the goal of “attrition” while ignoring other objectives Congress has established for the federal immigration system.
