Border Patrol Union slams AZ Gov Katie Hobbs for saying securing US border is 'anti-immigrant'

© YouTubeDemocrat Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs has vetoed a Republican-sponsored bill that would have authorized police to arrest illegal immigrants, saying the legislation was anti-immigrant and likely unconstitutional.

"Arresting illegal aliens who crash the border...illegally...is deemed 'anti-immigrant' by Arizona Gov Katie 'Veto' Hobbs," the BPU wrote. "Let that sink in for a moment."

On Monday, Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs vetoed SB1231, a bill that would have criminalized illegal border crossings in the state, labeling it "anti-immigrant legislation."

Her decision was criticized by the Border Patrol Union, which represents thousands of agents who are dealing with the crisis firsthand.

"Arresting illegal aliens who crash the border...illegally...is deemed 'anti-immigrant' by Arizona Gov Katie 'Veto' Hobbs," the BPU wrote. "Let that sink in for a moment."

"Politicians will not expel likely future voters," Elon Musk replied. "Just a matter of incentives."

On Monday, Hobbs released a video in which she explained her decision, and then pressed the "veto" stamp on the bill.

"Anti-immigrant legislation to score cheap political points has no place in our state," she said. "This bill does not secure our border. On the contrary, it will be harmful for communities and business in our state, and a burden for law enforcement personnel."

Hobbs went on to acknowledge the fact that Arizonans are feeling "frustration" due to the Biden administration's failure to solve the crisis at the southern border, but claimed that SB1231 was "not the solution."

Those at the Border Patrol Union were far from the only people to go after Hobbs.

"The Legislature did its job to protect our citizens, but Governor Hobbs failed to do hers," Republican State Senator and bill sponsor Janae Shamp said in a statement. "Vetoing the Arizona Border Invasion Act is a prime example of the chaos Hobbs is unleashing in our state while perpetuating this open border crisis as Biden's accomplice."

"Arizonans want and deserve safe communities," she added.

"Our local, county, and state law enforcement officers are pleading for help, and they support this legislation to protect our citizens. Their blood, sweat, and tears shed while trying to keep our communities safe from the staggering number of border-related crimes hitting our state will not be in vain ... This veto is a slap in the face to them, Arizona's victims of border-related crimes, and other citizens who will inevitably feel the wrath of this border invasion in one way, shape, or form at the hands of Hobbs and Biden."

Unelected, cheating, anti-American piece of 💩

slbeaudry I know, fear is strong when she suddenly gets a dose of reality with a lovely late-night visit by her local secret-government agents in black who tell her, 'that's a nice family you got there. be a shame if anything happened to them....' because otherwise she seemed very strong-willed and powerful in her beliefs, etc, etc. Pavlov's dogs the strongest, once broken, were the worst, never to recover. weird associations, but anyway....

[EDIT] I've mixed her up with someone else... trying to remember, sorry damnit... that sucks.

Somebody, please tell this fool that being anti something isn't always a bad thing. In this case, it is a very good thing as most of her state would tell her if she dared ask.

slbeaudry That's it.

This is traitorous. Lawmakers that promote illegal immigration must be recalled. What has happened to the people of Arizona? Do they know Hobbs is doing this? I guess there is no 'democracy' left in the U.S. ; they've exported it all.

Baybars Like many other parts of the country, we were subject to a steal. Blatant election fraud. Of course, there's a lot of corruption down here. Hard to tell who's not in bed with the swamp and/or cartels. Should've been Lake 😁 would have liked to have seen her in action 🤠

slbeaudry THAT's who I mixed her up with in my comment above! Thank you, that's her name. She was so close, damn....

slbeaudry We don't get to hear about the cartel impact on your politics and society. Not through main stream channels anyway.

I am truly sorry that you must deal with that crap on top of the election fraud. The way you put it, there does not seem to be an easy fix to these issues.

Perhaps Governor Hobbs could put these illegals to work to help pay for their free lunches by picking up all the trash that they thrown all over the state of AZ. She may even get reelected for another term !....

saying the legislation was anti-immigrant and likely unconstitutional.

I guess these parasite appointees follow a different constitution than "we the people" do.

Patrick2017 · 2024-03-07T21:37:46Z

Psstoffgoy They do, it's the constitution of 1871 act. that made The United States of America a Corporation, we the people got fucked by The Bankers of London and our Congress.

Reminds me of that scene at 58:00 minutes into the [Link] movie Animal House where a serious internal conversation takes place.
