About $50 million, to be distributed over two years, would go toward radars to help spot illegal border-crossers. Authorities would get another $2 million to crack down on illegal hirings.
The bill would require businesses to fire employees whose Social Security numbers are invalid. Illegal immigrants frequently use forgeries to meet federal employment eligibility requirements.
It would let state prosecutors seek civil penalties as high as $5,000 and the suspension or revocation of business licenses if an employer under investigation fails to stop employing illegal immigrants.
I predict that if she vetoes this bill, after all the other immigration vetoes she's done, she will sink her reelection ship. At least I hope so. I wish there was a nice website with a list of all the bills she has vetoed. I hear she has vetoed more than any other Arizona Governor.
States rights!
I've got $20 that the Jan "All Talk No Action" Napolitano refuses to sign it but moans and whines about how we need to do 'something' and how everybody 'should work together' to create a 'comprehensive' plan that is 'civil' and something referring to 'our humanity.' Any takers?
Here's my prediciton for what it is worth.
Shot down in the courts just like Prop 187 in California. I wa in Elementary school when that passed and I thought my teachers were going to crap a brick.
It passed with a HUGE margin and was signed by the governor and everything. Then the Mexican's lawyers took it to court and got the legislative branch to rebuff the will of the people.
Let me get this straight.
While the Democrat with an (R) next to his name, Arizona Senator McCain is busy giving away everything including the kitchen sink to illegal foreign nationals, the State of Arizona's legislature is trying to save itself from the bill Democrat Senator from Arizona, John McCain (R) significantly helped pass.
Hey McCain who do represent? yourself, or your state.
I know the answer.
Why to go Arizona!!!!!
Keep up the fight.
The best part of all is Sheriff Joe......he is already locking them up and putting them in tent city. God Bless the man, he is upholding the law and calling like it is.
We have a great conservative controlled legislature in Arizona. Too bad we have Janet Napalitano (Rat, Az) for a governor that veto's every bill that will stop the illegal invasion of Arizona.
(Denny Crane: "Every one should carry a gun strapped to their waist. We need more - not less guns.")
Now, if she's afraid of not getting reelected, then she may very well sign it. (Are Arizonas content to reelect a Democrat governor who exhibited more testosterone than Matt [Limp as a fish] Salmon? ) True, she runs the risk of alienating her alien base. But since ID is now required to vote in AZ, she may be writing them off.
Time to drink: She'll sign.
