New Immigration Laws Disputed
It has been in the news everywhere: The immigration law trying to curb illegal immigration into the United States will take effect next month. Anyone who is a non citizen must carry proof to show they are legally residing or living within the U.S. Police in AZ are able to stop and ask questions to ANYONE deemed to be illegal within the country. It seems that this law is left to the White House to settle immigration issues sprouting up along the South of the United States.
Border residents have been addressing their concerns of having trash left by those illegally crossing, drugs, and violence. However, although the citizens on the border are concerned with the trash, police are concerned that relations within the Hispanic community will turn sour. Additionally, people are concerned that the new law will take away from other serious laws that the police should be focusing on. Nashville immigration attorneys would agree.
The new law faces civil lawsuits. Additionally, law professors have been trying to untangle the issues. And the Obama administration is considering a court challenge by the U.S. Department of Justice. The reason is, the federal government should be the ones overseeing immigration, not local police. Perhaps those looking should get a Nashville citizenship attorney to help them earn citizenship legally.
