Rep. Weiner On Arizona's New Biased Immigration Bill
Statement
Issues: Immigration
In response to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer's signage of legislation that makes it a misdemeanor to not carry proof of immigration status, Rep. Weiner (D-Queens and Brooklyn), the only New York Member on the House Immigration Subcommittee, issued the following statement:
"Serious times and serious problems require serious leaders. Instead we have the folks running Arizona."
"Instead of helping to craft a comprehensive solution to a complex economic and social challenge, the governor and senators from Arizona have instead chosen to dive into the demagogic mosh pit that is today's Republican Party."
"It's not a surprise, but it's still a shame."
