'Sanctuary' Is Illegal and Deadly--Kris W. Kobach - NYPOST.com
'Sanctuary' Is Illegal and Deadly--Kris W. Kobach - NYPOST.com:
Last week, the Justice Department made an astonishing statement about its unprecedented lawsuit to stop the Arizona illegal-immigration law. Attorney General Eric Holder's spokeswoman, Tracy Schmaler, claimed that it was appropriate to go after Arizona, but inappropriate to stop 'sanctuary cities.'
Schmaler said: 'There is a big difference between a state or locality saying they are not going to use their resources to enforce a federal law, as so-called sanctuary cities have done, and a state passing its own immigration policy that actively interferes with federal law. . . That's what Arizona has done in this case.'"
