Immigration Laws!
Rep. Diane Black (R-TN) filed last night an amendment to the House Commerce-
Justice-Science Appropriations bill that would prevent the federal
government from using taxpayer funds to sue states over their immigration
enforcement laws.
Specifically, the proposed amendment is based on her previously introduced
bill, H.R. 3842
, which protects state immigration enforcement laws that the U.S. Department
of Justice (DOJ) has either challenged in court or suggested it may
challenge. Rep. Black's legislation is the House's companion to S. 1856
introduced by Sens. Jim DeMint (R-SC), Jeff Sessions (R-AL), and David
Vitter (R-LA) last fall.
The specific state laws protected under Rep. Black's amendment include:
Oklahoma HB 1804; Missouri HB 390; Arizona SB 1070; Utah HB 497; Indiana SB
590 and HB 1402; Alabama HB 56; South Carolina S 20; and Georgia HB 87.
Call your Representatives today and tell them:
Federal resources should be used to enforce immigration laws — not sue
states for passing legislation mirroring federal law; and
You want U.S. immigration laws enforced — not more of the
Administration's backdoor amnesty policies that put illegal aliens before
hardworking Americans and legal residents. |
