We’ve all seen the phony White House and administration when it comes to dealing with illegal aliens in this country, and states that create laws to combat this problem.
The state’s are taken to court by the White House and pressured through funding, etc… not to enforce the law that is already on the books. We all saw Obama and the administration go after Arizona and now Alabama for enforcing the law. But this same president and same administration refuses to go after sanctuary status area’s, which are clearly in violation of federal law. Doesn’t anybody wonder about that?
Apparently some senators do and have informed Big Sis and DHS to stop ignoring illegal alien sanctuaries. Oh, and yes, the correct definition of a person in this country illegally is, illegal alien. Not illegal immigrant, undocumented worker, or any other politically correct bullshit term. They are correctly labeled illegal alien, period.
While the Justice Department focuses on taking action against state laws to combat illegal immigration, a group of U.S. Senators is asking the Obama Administration to stop ignoring local ordinances that undermine federal laws by offering undocumented aliens sanctuary.
In battling local immigration control measures nationwide, the DOJ has claimed that they conflict with federal immigration law and undermine the government’s careful balance of immigration enforcement priorities and objectives. The Obama Administration has made this argument recently in cases against Arizona and Alabama.
But what is the administration doing about local governments that refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities and blatantly ignore the legal status of arrested individuals? A group of Senate Judiciary Committee members posed the question to Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano this week.
They specifically mentioned Cook County Illinois where local authorities openly flip the finger at the feds by refusing to report illegal immigrants who come in contact with police, even dangerous criminals. In fact, in 2007 Judicial Watch took legal action against the Chicago Police Department—which has a don’t-ask-don’t-tell immigration policy—after learning of an illegal immigrant sanctuary resolution that was being considered by Cook County’s Board of Commissioners at the time.
No one is surprised by the hypocrisy, are they? It’s the trademark of the left and the Democrat Party.
