Gingrich Promises to End Legal Challenge to State Immigration Laws
"Newt Gingrich brought his rapidly ascending campaign to Greenville on Thursday, declaring that as president he would end the government's legal action against South Carolina's immigration law. Rick Perry also brought his hopes to town, declaring his campaign still was on the march," Greenvilleonline.com writes.
"Gingrich told a gathering of business and community leaders that on the day he's inaugurated, he will sign an executive order dropping lawsuits against South Carolina, Alabama and Arizona 'because I think the federal government should be stopping illegal immigration, not stopping the states from enforcing the laws.'"
