AZ To Begin Fundraising For State Border Fence On July 20
Arizona plans to open a website on the 20th of July, whose URL has not yet been released to avoid donor frustration, to raise funds that will be used to build border fence on private and State land, with inmate labor."It's because the federal government won't do it and because the state doesn't have the money to do it," said state Senator Steve Smith (R-Maricopa), the lawmaker who sponsored the fence bill. Democrats called it, "A feel-good distraction from pressing for more comprehensive action on border and immigration issues." In past, State Democrats have done everything in their power to prevent any laws that reduce illegal immigration and drug smuggling. The new site will be modeled after the successful site that Governor Jan Brewer (R) has already used for a year to collect millions of dollars of donations to support the legal fight to keep Arizona's anti-illegal alien law, in the face of the Obama administrations efforts to prevent reductions in illegal immigration and drug smuggling.
