Democrat Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs has vetoed the ICE Act, which would have mandated state and local law enforcement to cooperate with federal officials to facilitate deportations. The legislation, Senate Bill 1164, aimed to have local authorities assist Immigration and Customs Enforcement with identification, detainment, and deportation of illegal aliens.

Additionally, the bill barred any town or city from declaring “Sanctuary” policies that would restrict or hinder ICE actions.

In her veto letter, Hobbs wrote, “Today I vetoed Senate Bill 1164. Arizonans, not Washington, DC politicians, must decide what’s best for Arizona.”

“I will continue to work with the federal government on true border security, but we should not force state and local officials to take marching orders from Washington D.C.,” Hobbs concluded.

This nut has to be on the payroll of the cartels.

Arizona is paying a steep price for letting this bitch and her accomplices steal the election from Lake.

[Macho MAGA Man]

Yes they are!

[Nateman]

Not just the Governor. The Attorney general and Secretary of State as well.

[dragnet2]

her accomplices steal the election from Lake.

Some of those accomplices were top Republican insiders.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Cheating and extended vote counting is what got Hobbs installed.
Californians move to Arizona and immediately s**t in the pool.

[Menehune56]

How did this person get elected state wide in a solid red state?

[Governor Dinwiddie]

#5: "Some of those accomplices were top Republican insiders."

It takes strong bleach to remove the stink and stain of Flake and McCain.

[sit-rep]

They better watch out!!! We are going to Investigate this!!!

[dragnet2]

There was cheating, just like in every state, but had zip to do with Californians. Our elections were a free for all of fraud., D.C. became a crime scene.

The people complain about crime and gangs and such, yet they STILL vote for these democrats....

Um, that's actually what Arizonans, through their state representatives, were doing until you decided to f&#$ them over, Kate.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

we should not force state and local officials to take marching orders from Washington D.C.

Well, Katie, the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution of the United States says otherwise.

[Macho MAGA Man]

(Some of those accomplices were top Republican insiders.)

Yes they were. One was Republican Stephen Richer, the former elected Maricopa County Recorder, responsible for voter registration, early voting administration, and public recordings in Maricopa County, Arizona. He helped facilitate the steal.

[Macho MAGA Man]

Lol

So true!

[dragnet2]

Forget them. Fast-forward to 2024 and ya got the Chairman of the Republican party in AZ attempting to bribe Lake with “Name your price” cash bribes from their, “East coast friends”.

[Macho MAGA Man]

I remember that!

[dragnet2]

The American hating leftist were trying their best to overthrow Arizona. They came close. Trump wasn’t supposed to win.

...but we should not force state and local officials to take marching orders from Washington D.C.

I see she is a strong believer in state's rights! So, what other federal laws would she be just fine with state and local officials ignoring?

[dragnet2]

Yep...Corrupt to the core.
