Rep. Black Introduces Immigration Bill Targeting Obama Administration's Lawsuits

A very interesting post from http://www.numbersusa.com/ about stopping lawsuits that were passed by various states to make up for federal unenforcement on immigration. This follows this post about unemployed American engineers being displaced by imported workers.This follows this post analyzing the best current candidate on immigration.  This follows this post about the new congressional districts in Texas being redrawn so that the new seats favor the Democratic party in a Republican state. This follows this post about how to Report Illegal Immigrants such as the 30,000 openly illegal immigrants in the border town of El Paso, where President Barack Obama recently bashed immigration enforcement!

And Remember when contacting public officials to please be firm but respectful. Any over the top messages could result in law enforcement action against you. Just let these politicians know that you are aware of what they have done and that you intend to remove them from office in the 2012 elections.


Rep. Black Introduces Immigration Bill Targeting Obama Administration's Lawsuits

Rep. Diane Black

Representative Diane Black (R-Tenn.) introduced H.R. 3842, a bill that would stop the Department of Justice and the Obama Administration from pursuing lawsuits against Arizona, South Carolina and Alabama over their state immigration enforcement laws.



"While the federal government and the Obama Administration have failed to take any action, individual states have put forth measures that give law enforcement the authority to address the alien populations in their states- only to see the Obama Administration slap them with politically motivated lawsuits," Rep Black told The Daily News Journal.



Rep. Black continutes, "My legislation uses Congress's power of the purse to deny Eric Holder and the Justice Department the ability to use taxpayer dollars to fund these lawsuits. Congress must support every state's right to enforce the law and protect their own citizens without fear of retribution from the federal government."



In 2010, the Department of Justice filed suit against Arizona to halt the state's immigration enforcement efforts. Since then, DOJ has entered into lawsuits against eight other states.



H.R. 3842 is a companion bill to a Senate measure, sponsored by Senators Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), David Vitter (R-La.) and Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.).



"It's absurd that the Obama Administration, which has failed to enforce the nation's immigration laws, is now stopping South Carolina, Alabama and Arizona from taking commonsense steps to protect citizens and uphold the law," said DeMint.



Representative Black was first elected in 2010. NumbersUSA rated her as a True Reformer based on her responses to our Immigration-Reduction survey.
