Supreme Court signals support for Arizona immigration law provision | Fox News

The Supreme Court signaled Wednesday that it might uphold a key element of Arizona's immigration law, as justices across the board suggested the state has a serious problem on its hands and should have some level of sovereignty to address illegal immigration.

The justices appeared to ready to allow a provision requiring police officers to check the immigration status of people they think are in the U.S. illegally.

The justices strongly suggested Wednesday they are not buying the Obama administration's argument that the state exceeded its authority, with Chief Justice John Roberts at one point saying he doesn't think the federal government even wants to know how many illegal immigrants are in the country.

"You can see it's not selling very well," Justice Sonia Sotomayor told Obama administration Solicitor General Donald Verrilli.

Two of the key statutes, which have been blocked and will be at issue in Wednesday's arguments, are provisions to bar illegal immigrants from seeking a job and to require law enforcement to check the immigration status of anyone they suspect of being in the country illegally in the course of a routine stop.
If you are here illegally, you should NOT be able to get a job. PERIOD.
 
This is a big f'n deal.

Several States could pass some game-changing illegal vermin legislation in a hurry should the AZ law stand.

Yep. This would also advance the cause for legislative initiatives that would challenge the Court in regard to birthright citizenship for anchor babies.
 
Whoa!!!! So, Barry and his boys were not taught about the Constitution in law school?

So much for the most intelligent President...
 
Can anyone explain why legal Mexican immigrants would go back to Mexico? If everything is so great here, why would you let an ID check change all of that?

Those here legally won't go back.

Those who are illega will hopefully go back to Mexico.l

There will be more jobs for those who are here legally.
