  Catholic Bishops balk on Arizona Immigration Law.
The Bishops of the Catholic Conference of Arizona are denouncing the proposed law making Arizona the only state in America to criminalize the existence of undocumented immigrants. The proposed legislation, now being looked over at the state Legislature, would direct law enforcement to try to discover people's immigration standing when there's credible doubt they may be an undocumented immigrant. The Catholic bishops in Phoenix, Tucson and Gallup, N.M. agree with many others that this legislation could be counter productive and make undocumented immigrants fearful to report crimes. If this happens it could potentially assist in some violent criminals to remain on the streets. The religious leaders also commented that making the existence of undocumented immigrants a criminal offense it could lead to unforeseen repercussion. The Religious leaders also say that this proposed law does not stop just at enforcement, so law enforcement could potentially make the presence of kids illegal.

Mexican government reacts about the signing of the <a title="Arizona immigration law slammed by Napolitano, others" href="http://personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/2010/04/26/arizona-immigration-law-napolitano/">Arizona immigration law</a> saying that this will lead to racial-profiling and that it will affect cross-border relations. I do understand their point but I guess, this is not all about racial issue. Although I do feel that illegal immigration is a problem, I don't know if this law is the solution. However, I am not going to condemn the efforts Arizona is making, because although I hear a lot of complaints regarding the immigration bill I don't appear to be hearing any solutions to the difficulties. I can sit here all day, but the fact remains, every person is complaining and not a soul is acting!
