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.

Hearing today in Arizona sanctions case

The Arizona Republic

Dec. 18, 2007 12:00 AM

U.S. District Judge Neil Wake will hear arguments at 1:30 p.m. today on motions including a request for a temporary restraining order barring Arizona's employer sanctions law from taking effect Jan. 1.

The hearing marks the latest attempt by business groups and Hispanic organizations to block the law.

Earlier this month, Wake threw out a previous lawsuit after concluding the groups had sued the wrong people.

A new lawsuit was filed last week with changes that included adding Arizona's 15 county attorneys as defendants.

The groups also filed an appeal of Wake's decision with the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco.
