Arizona’s Democratic governor Katie Hobbs, has vetoed a bill approved by the state legislature that would require replacement and state police for cooperation with federal immigration officials.
The Legislature led by Republicans approved a bill that prohibited local jurisdictions from passing ordinances that would prevent the local police from working with federal immigration authorities or blocking federal actions of immigration actions and the financing press (AP).
The bill would also have requested the premises to cooperate in immigration stoppers and inform federal officials about detained migrants or are released from prisons and prisons.
The supporters of the bill said that the measure was necessary to help the federal government have a safer and orderly system to put foreign criminals in custody for deportation and for state officials to be a “partner, not an obstacle” for federal immigration policies.
But Hobbs insisted on the veto statement that it is wrong to force state and local officials to take Washington’s march orders. “
The bill would also have asked prisons and state prisons entering the federal government to temporarily stay in waiting for deportation.
In addition, the bill would require the State to retain funds from the jurisdictions that violate the new law.
Hobbs veto is contrary to surveys that show that voters are increasingly inclined to stricter immigration policies. Last year, for example, surveys showed that 63 percent of Arizonans supported proposition 314, a measure that would illegally criminalize the State. Another survey last year found Hat, a strong majority felt that the United States had lost control over the border low Biden.
And once the dust was established for last year’s elections, the Arizonans had sent more republicans to the state legislature.
In November, the elected president of Arizona, Steve Montenegro, told Breitbart News that the Arizonans had rejected the agenda of Governor Hobbs and the Democrats by expanding the control of Republicans on the House of States.
