Arizona Keeps Up
the Fight
New Measures on November Ballot
Lou Dobbs Tonight -- CNN -- October 13 Wian:
Proposition 300 would extend and expand an existing law preventing
illegal aliens from receiving state welfare benefits; 103 would
make English the official language of Arizona; 102 would stop
illegal aliens from receiving punitive damages in civil lawsuits.
And 100 would prevent illegal aliens accused of serious felonies
from receiving bail.
[....] Thomas: Well, Arizona has a tremendous problem with illegal
immigrants coming into the state, committing serious crimes,
and then absconding, and not facing trial for their crimes, either
because they jump bail after they are let out, or because, when
they are let out on bail, the federal government deports them.
