A federal judge dismissed part of the U.S. Justice Department's challenge to Arizona's new immigration law.
Arizona regained its footing in court Friday when a federal judge dismissed parts of the U.S. Justice Department's challenge to the state's new immigration law and rejected several claims made by Hispanic activists and Phoenix police officers.
U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton's ruling on Friday struck down the federal government's challenge to the portion of the law that prohibits the transport of illegal immigrants.
It also rejected a challenge from Phoenix police officers and an advocacy group called Chicanos Por La Causa who argued that the cops could be sued for racial profiling if they enforced the law or lose their jobs if they didn't.
It is great to help people, but we just can't afford to take care of people coming here illegally (which demonstrates total disregard for our laws), taking jobs from our own citizens, sending most of their money out of the country, not paying taxes and receiving all kinds of benefits from the taxpayers.
