Arizona Law Well Drafted, Criticism is Over the Top Says Byron York Byron York at the Washington Examiner says that SB 1070 is "a reasonable, limited, carefully-crafted measure designed to help law enforcement deal with a serious problem in Arizona. Its authors anticipated criticism and went to great lengths to make sure it is constitutional and will hold up in court. It is the criticism of the law that is over the top, not the law itself." York points out that concerns about "reasonable suspicion" are overblown, considering that an officer usually verifies identity whenever they detain someone. It is at the point that someone can't provide documentation that carries a presumption of legal presence that officers can check their immigration status. FAIR also has a new document related to SB 1070 - a summary of provisions in SB 1070 (PDF). |
