The state of Arizona is preparing to be sued by the Whitehouse. It is likely that a lawsuit will come from the Whitehouse in early July, to attempt to block Arizona's controversial new immigration law. The new law, called SB 1070, was passed earlier this year and it is an attempt by the state of Arizona to solve its many problems surrounding illegal immigration from Mexico. State officials in Arizona are already preparing for the expected legal challenge and the governor says that money donations are coming in from all fifty states of America to help in defending Arizona's new immigration law. So far the state has received $123,000 in private donations and more keep coming in, sometimes as little as one dollar at the time. In the Whitehouse no one has been willing to disclose any information on the probable lawsuit, but some experts in legal matters have suggested that the Whitehouse might argue that Arizona violated the United States Constitution when passing the new law. According to the Constitution it is the federal government that has the power to regulate immigration to the United States. Arizona has already been hit by five different lawsuits on account of the new law, and President Obama has earlier criticized SB 1070 as being misdirected. Obama said that taking legal action against individual illegal immigrants alone is not the way to solve the country's problems with illegal immigration. Arizona Governor Jane Brewer on the other hand, says the president should be spending time and taxpayers money on increasing U.S. border security, rather than on suing over Arizona's attempt to actually do something about their own immigration problems. Senate Bill 1070 (SB 1070) allows police in Arizona to legally stop and check the immigration status of any person as long as there is "reasonable suspicion" that the person is in the United States illegally. Opponents of the new Arizona immigration law say the SB 1070 will lead to harassment of people who are of Latino descent, and that the law might actually hamper effective law enforcement.
