East Valley Tribune Reports : Just days before an anticipated Supreme Court ruling, the American Civil Liberties Union wants state officials to warn possible rogue officers from enforcing comfort inn reservations the state s immigration law before they are legally entitled to do so.
In a letter to the Peace Officers Standards and Training Board on Thursday, Alessandra Meetze, executive director of the Arizona chapter, said even if the Supreme Court upholds part of SB 1070, that does not free officers to immediately start checking (Racially Profiling) the immigration status comfort inn reservations of those they have stopped.
At the very least, she said, the high court would order U.S. District Court Judge Susan Bolton to dissolve the injunction she issued nearly two years ago barring the state from enforcing several key provisions while the legality comfort inn reservations of the law is debated. And that process could take some time.
But Meetze also reminded Lyle Mann, the AzPOST executive comfort inn reservations director, that there are other challenges to SB 1070 pending which are not linked to the current case before the Supreme Court and not based on the arguments of the Obama administration that federal law preempts the state statute. And Meetze said her organization is considering all options if the court sides with Arizona, including seeking a new injunction based on its own claims comfort inn reservations that SB 1070 will automatically lead to illegal racial profiling.
Much of that surrounded the section comfort inn reservations which requires officers who have stopped someone to verify if that person is in the country legally if there is reasonable suspicion that he or she is not. The law allows the use of the person s race to be used as a factor in making that determination, though it cannot be the only factor.
Mann said at the time the information is designed to ensure that officers do not engage in racial profiling. The training materials include guidelines that Border Patrol officers use when determining who to question.
Meetze said she fears that these new materials, being sent out now, amount to an invitation for officers to start making these inquiries the moment the Supreme Court issues its ruling, assuming it upholds the legality of what foes of the law have called the show me your papers provision.
Any law enforcement agency that attempts comfort inn reservations to enforce the enjoined provisions of SB 1070 before those provisions are deemed legally enforceable would expose itself to considerable scrutiny , she wrote to Mann.
Rogue police officers comfort inn reservations who take it upon themselves to demand people s papers before comfort inn reservations any part of the law even goes into effect will inevitably leave their communities highly exposed to lawsuits brought on by victims of these discriminatory practices , she said.
Meetze also said that the training materials themselves are flawed because they are based on what courts have said the Border Patrol is entitled to do. She said those rulings involve people near the border and have nothing to do with normal interactions that state and local police have with those they stop.
For example, those materials list a host of factors that can be considered in determining whether there is reasonable suspicion someone is in this country illegally, such a travelling in a group, being in an overloaded car or being unable to speak English. Meetze said there are many people who are in this country legally who might fall into those categories.
There could not be a greater contrast comfort inn reservations : Mitt Romney offers self-deportation comfort inn reservations and tells that Arizona is a model for the nation. His main adviser in Immigration is Kris Kobach. comfort inn reservations Obama has tried his best to help these undocumented people. It is the Republican Congress ( specially comfort inn reservations the House ) that is an obstacle to every possible good law : Immigration, Jobs, Stimulus, Education, Energy. Some low information Latinos may get a lot of help from canvassers, door to door visitors or sales People of the Democratic Party, if you prefer. It is a matter of dissemination of information so that Latinos can see the Big difference. It is sowing comfort inn reservations seed of what really is going on. Tell Latinos who Jan Brewer, Russell Pearce, Kris Kobach, Mitt Romney and other guys are, and their close non-sanctum relationships. ******************

My husband and I have been happily married comfort inn reservations for over 20 years. My husband is a big, Irish-American. We have two grown sons. We are happy and my family is doing well. I have been employed as a mid level manager at a very large, well known corporation for over 25 years, now recently retired.
In May, 2006, after the Immigration Marches, I started seeing the cable news channels talking very negatively about illegal immigration. I found many internet sites were talking negatively about legal and illegal immigration issues as well.
Since I do research on the job, I started conducting Immigration research on the web. I joined several Immigration websites and I researched others. I ve learned so much about Immigration issues over the last year.
