|    Arizona Dem Gov Katie Hobbs vetoes bill     |

      XPost: misc.immigration.usa, alt.politics.democrats, alt.fan.rush-limbaugh       XPost: talk.politics.guns       From: liars@msnbc.com              Governor Katie Hobbs has vetoed a law that would make crossing the border       illegally a state crime in Arizona. She labeled the bill as "harmful" and       "burdensome" to the community.              Senate Bill 1231, called the "Arizona Border Invasion Act," makes it       "unlawful for a person who is an alien (unlawful immigrant) to enter       Arizona from a foreign nation at any location other than a lawful port of       entry" in the state of Arizona. The governor has also talked about bussing       illegal immigrants out of the state.              Hobbs vetoed the measure and wrote a letter in response to the law being       brought to her desk and cited "constitutional concerns" for her reasoning       to not pass the bill.              "Today, I vetoed Senate Bill 1231. This bill does not secure our border,       will be harmful for communities and business in our state, and burdensome       for law enforcement personnel and the state judicial system."              "Further, this bill presents significant constitutional concerns and would       be certain to mire the State in costly and protracted litigation," Hobbs       added.              A similar bill was passed by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott that has faced       scrutiny in the courts with regard to how it squared with the       Constitution. The decision from Abbott was greenlit by a federal appeals       court but then the Supreme Court put a temporary hold on the measure.              The ongoing border crisis has been raging in states like Arizona where       people have recounted seeing over 700 people cross the border illegally in       a day. Airlines have also used the state as a point of transportation for       illegal immigrants flying throughout the United States. It was recently       reported that the Biden admin flew at least 320,000 illegal immigrants       from different parts of the world to US cities.              https://thepostmillennial.com/arizona-dem-gov-katie-hobbs-vetoes-bill-       making-illegal-border-crossing-a-state-crime?utm_campaign=64470              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
