Liberal politicians from the White House on down have vigorously advocated for illegal immigrant amnesty and lax border enforcement in a naked attempt to bolster prospective voter rolls.

Hilda Solis has made deals with Mexico, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Costa Rica, El Salvador, and Dominican Republic that “removes” the fear of deportation of illegals.

Sheriff Paul Babeu says what Obama is doing with his “defacto amnesty” is “un-American” and “almost like a dictator.” Arizona Sheriff Babeu says he will continue to enforce the law along with fellow Sheriff Joe Arpaio. Nearly every illegal has committed felonies in forged documents including drivers license and social security cards.

On July 25th Barack Obama told the National Council of La Raza (“The Race”): “I know some people want me to bypass Congress and change the laws on my own… The idea of doing things on my own is very tempting. But that’s not how — that’s not how our system works.” Then on August 18th, he did bypass Congress, changed those laws “on his own”, and began a massive amnesty-by-decree for potential millions of illegal aliens. – From StandWithAZ

Hispanic voters are a key voter bloc as Mr. Obama seeks re-election next year, but many of them felt he broke his promise to them to work on legislation once he took office. Thursday’s move already was paying dividends as Hispanic advocacy groups praised the steps. – Washington Times

“There are several areas along our border with Mexico where in fact we believe that the drug cartels not only have taken control, but control the areas by which the illegal crossings occur.”

The scope of Eric Holder’s disastrous ‘Fast and Furious” ATF operation just keeps expanding. Now a single traffic stop in Phoenix has revealed 43 automatic weapons with serial numbers traceable to the the ATF scandal – taken from 4 illegal aliens arrested in the stop. How many AK-47s has this Administration put in the hands of gangs throughout the U.S. How many children will die in drive-bys using weapons Holder GAVE to criminals? And with the ATF Director now saying the DoJ obstructing the investigation, the House GOP must not stop until all responsible are rotting in jail. And what did Obama know and when did he know it? – by StandWithAZ

H.R.2164 forbids the states from using their constitutional power to revoke licenses from businesses that hire illegal aliens unless there has been “a showing by the Secretary of Homeland Security, by clear and convincing evidence, that the employer had knowledge that an employee is an unauthorized alien.” There is no likelihood that an Obama Administration will prosecute employers who use E-Verify but fail to fire the illegals, or who contract out part of their workforce to circumvent the system.

Durbin led off the first hearing of his pet ‘DREAM Act’ by asking all the illegals in his audience to stand up (you know, the ones ‘hiding in the shadows’) and then says he sees in them our future “doctors, our teachers…our senators, and maybe our president.” Uh, Senator, try reading Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution, which says: “No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President.” So not even a LEGAL immigrant can EVER be President. Sigh. – StandWithArizina.com

Agreements between the Homeland Security and Interior Departments on how best to protect the ecosystem are frustrating lawmakers who say they also prevent agents from conducting routine patrols.
