(CNSNews.com) -- Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, who has been a vocal critic of the new Arizona immigration law, told Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Monday that she had not reviewed the law in detail, but nevertheless repeated criticism she made in April on ABC’s “Good Morning America” that the law is a “bad law enforcement law.”
Last week, Attorney General Eric Holder said he hadn't read the law either, although he too has criticized it. He told the House Judiciary Committee he'd "expressed concerns" about the Arizona law, "on the basis of what I've heard about the law" from newspaper and TV reports. Holder has questioned whether the law is constitutional and has said the federal government may challenge it in court.
On Monday, Sen. McCain asked Napolitano, who is the former governor of Arizona, about the law during a hearing on the federal response to the oil spill off the Gulf Coast --“Have you had a chance to review the new law that was passed by the state of Arizona?”
“I have not reviewed it in detail, I certainly know of it, senator,” Napolitano replied.

How can you be for or against a law you didn't read? Apparently this law is only 10 pages and you can't read it to determine which specific parts you don't agree with?
ReplyDeleteWhat's to review? You can't get by the enforcement part of the law without it being unconstitutional.
