Statement by Greg Evers Regarding Federal Judicial Blocking of Key Provisions of Arizona Immigration Reforms
Washington County News, July 29, 2010
State Rep. Greg Evers released the following statement in regards to portions of the Arizona immigration law being discarded by a federal court order.
"Shame on the federal government and activist federal judges for failing to protect American workers and our border states - if it weren't for the lack of leadership in Washington, Arizona and other states would not have to take matters into their own hands.
"As a sponsor of immigration legislation in Florida, identical to the Arizona law, I am deeply disappointed in the federal court's decision today to throw out key provisions.
"Today, American workers received a bad decision and American workers will continue to suffer if this continues to happen. It literally has become a matter of public welfare and public safety."
