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.

Obummah plans to get rid of federal immigration law and grant amnesty and voter rights to "criminaliens". Therefore he can't have Arizona enforcing current federal law. People might see it working and oppose his plan to create an instant voter base of 13 million formerly illegal aliens for himself.
Illegal Immigration Costs U.S. $113 Billion a Year, Study Finds

"However, many immigrants may not be aware of the fact that it is a legal requirement for Permanent Residents to carry their Permanent Resident Card with them at all times. If and only when a Permanent Residence chooses to become a naturalised citizen of America will they relinquish their Permanent Resident Card and no longer have to carry it with them. Under the "Now that you are a Permanent Resident" heading on the USCIS web site, it states: "The Permanent Resident Card, Form I-551, is issued to all Permanent Residents as evidence of alien registration and their Permanent status in the US. The card must be in your possession at all times."
This is the (Federal) law regarding i.d. and LEGAL immigrants. I am sure Arizona will do away with their
"Mexicans hate it" law and will consider any foreign looking-sounding suspects legal immigrants and holders of green cards, which by Federal law they are supposed to carry with them.
