Well, the official policy is to NOT enforce immigration laws or protect the border. So ENFORCING the laws cripples the policy of non-enforcement.

Well said. Getting into this suit, page 10,
"SB 1070 Represents an Unlawful Attempt to Set Immigration Policy at a State Level

Only the federal government may establish immigration policy-namely the process of determin[ing] who should or should not be admitted into the country."


If I'm reading this right so far, just because you came here under unlawful circumstances (i.e. illegal entry), the federal gov't alone will determine whether they want you to stay or be deported. They have total jurisdiction once you've arrived. Even determing whether you are an "unlawful alien" is considered forbidden by the Justice Department and DHS. It's theirs and theirs alone to question.

Then they lose on that, too, since the 287(g) already authorizes state and local LEOs to determine who is or is not in the country legally.
