U.S. appeals court OKs decision blocking Arizona immigration law

 There is a controversial issue dealing with immigration when Jan Brewer, who signed the measure known as SB 1070 into law last year. This legislation would have required local law enforcement in Arizona to apprehend and help deport illegal immigrants. The Obama administration sued, arguing that only the federal government has that authority. Now local police officers should check a person's immigration status while enforcing other laws. "For decades, the federal government has neglected its constitutional duty to American citizens by failing to secure the border," said Brewer. I think that there should be more inforced law on immigration because it is affecting Americans that are paying taxes.
