Supreme Court to Hear Arizona’s Appeal of Ruling Against Immigration Law

[bobbyw24]

The U.S. Supreme Court said it will consider reviving the trailblazing Arizona law that would use local police and prosecutors to crack down on illegal immigration.

Already set to rule on President Barack Obama’s health-care law by the middle of next year, the justices today added another high-profile case that has implications for similar laws around the country and for the 2012 elections.

The court will hear Arizona’s appeal of a ruling that said the state was interfering with the federal government’s authority over immigration policy. Arizona, which says its 370- mile border with Mexico is the crossing point for half the nation’s illegal immigrants, contends it has the right to tackle a problem that the national government has failed to address.

Cute how that Statist hag Brewer is such a 10th Amendment advocate, except for when it comes to medical mj.

Arizona Immigration Law = National ID for Arizonans

I am so glad Pearce is gone. Too bad he left so much damage in his wake. Alas, it's how the ruling class rolls.
