An Arizona congressman urged businesses on Tuesday to boycott his state if the governor signs into law a bill to make illegal immigration a state offense.

Rep. Raul Grijalva, a Democrat, said businesses need to punish the state if the bill becomes law as a way of making sure no other states follow suit.

"Do not do business with the state," Mr. Grijalva said at a press conference on the Capitol grounds in Washington.

Rep. Luis V. Guttierez, Illinois Democrat, also said if the law is signed then President Obama must assert the primacy of federal law in this area and tell the state it cannot enforce it.

Gov. Jan Brewer, a Republican, has not taken a position on the measure.

We should encourage illegal aliens to join the boycott of Arizona.

Can someone realy what companies are based in Arizona?

I would like to do more business there instead of New England and California

Little Luis is lucky that he hasn’t been incarcerated for his support of the FALN in Puerto Rico. He is just one of the borderline felons that have been elected to the House.

Illegal aliens can avoid doing business with the state by returning to their countries.

go daddy, dial, philosophy, hi health.... from my memory, which is going bad. ;)

I like that thought.

Apparently there is a noisy bunch at the Capitol in Phx and some students “chained” themselves and were arrested.

I am sick of the open borders crowd. Pandering to them has got us where we are now.

Sorry but AZ will be getting a visit from me soon. Get rid of McCain and I might even move there.

I wonder how enthusiastically the Arizona business community will support Congressman Raul in his next election.

He’s a lib, noble causes, the ends justifies the means.

Time to book a vacation in Arizona.

Plan your next vacation in Scottsdale!

I stayed there recently and had a blast. Check out the Old Town section. A ton to do within walking distance! Felt very safe at night. I am going back as soon as I can.

Turn about is fair play. The good citizens of Arizona should boycott the representative at the ballot box.

I am really tired of John, “stand on the other side of the aisle” McCain.

[machogirl]

Agreed. His district was gerrymandered for him, also for Ed Pastor. They will never leave.

[B.O. Plenty]

I'm vacationing in Arizona the first chance I get..

...screw you Rep. Raul Grijalva...

“Illegal aliens can avoid doing business with the state by returning to their countries.”
