News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Immigration reform

Feb. 25, 2007 11:25 PM

Local leaders are coming up with their own ways of dealing with undocumented immigrants in Arizona.

• Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio is getting ready to put as many as 160 of his deputies through training to enforce federal immigration laws.


• Randy Pullen, head of the Arizona Republican Party, has pledged to try again to get a measure on the ballot that would require police officers to be trained to enforce federal immigration laws. His previous attempt was unsuccessful.


• Stacey O'Connell, former state director of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, is running for a Phoenix City Council seat, pledging to "work toward local governments being able to enforce immigration laws."
