In response, Congress passed H.R. 3009, the Enforce the Law for Sanctuary Cities Act, introduced by Congressman Duncan Hunter (R-CA). As an original cosponsor, I voted in favor of H.R. 3009. The bill would block certain federal funds to jurisdictions that

This bill amends to help (America Vote Act of 2002) to allow an individual needed to present identification to be able to vote in a federal election by presenting the right state or local election official with a sworn written statement. The bill is still introduced and did not pass the house yet. This bill, from my point of view, should pass the house and become a law, because it benefits the American society and makes the voting process more legit and secure. This legislation will also make it easier on the citizens in voting and election process. I believe that it does not motivate any political disagreement with the president.

The U.S Supreme Court ruled the acts passed by the state of New Hampshire were unconstitutional as it violated article 1 Section 10 of the constitution.

In his chapter “Another Country” , David Shipler writes about his belief that the Fourth Amendment rights of American citizens are being infringed upon by the modern day police force. He explains how, through the years, various court cases have changed the interpretation of the Fourth Amendment, giving police the power to justify questionable methods regarding the searches of individuals, their vehicles, and other personal belongings. Shipler uses examples of firsthand experience working with policemen who specifically abused these changes in order to conduct such questionable searches. These examples involved the “frisking” of individuals as well as the stopping and searching of individuals’ vehicles without their direct consent.

The whole point of the Fourth Amendment is not to completely stop the police, because the amendment can be waived if an officer has a warrant, or a person’s consent. The Fourth Amendment states that generally a search or seizure is illegal unless there is a warrant, or special circumstances. Technically stating that a citizen is protected by the Fourth Amendment, until a government employee gets a warrant, and then they can invade a citizen’s privacy. Also people state that the FISA Court’s warrants are constitutional, but the NSA’s surveillance is unconstitutional. Even though people do not like the NSA’s surveillance, the NSA is legal because the FISA Court that the people did not mind makes it legal.

It was a ten year moratorium on Chinese labor immigration. In order to legally immigrate, citizens were required to have certification from the government to prove they were not laborers. The act defined the excludables as skilled and unskilled laborers and Chinese employed in mining. (Chinese

The convenient thing about this is that you can do as you please without the worry of the government trying to disrupt your peace. It also helps people of color feel protected from police officers who could be racist, and just want to go through their belongings to arrest them. Another advantage to this is that you don 't have to let police officers inside of your home if you don 't please to do so. However, the downside to this amendment is that valuable time to police officers is wasted since they have to wait for a search warrant to proceed with their job. Another downside is that if they do happen to search someone without a warrant and they find what they were looking for it won 't be able to be used as evidence against the

According to Lee and Dong (2012), in April 2010, the Arizona State Legislature enacted the Support Our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act (“S.B. 1070”), which establishes or amends state immigration offenses and defines local police officers’ immigration law enforcement authority where Section 1 of S.B. 1070 states that the Arizona legislature’s goal in enacting this statute was to deter illegal immigrants from entering the country and from engaging in economic activity (Retrieved from https://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/cert/11-182). Although the State of Arizona is frustrated with the problem with illegal aliens, it cannot take the matter over their own hands without going through the United States Supreme Court Decision to make it equal for all states not just one.

News reports have documented several violations of illegal immigrants ' Fourth Amendment rights by police officers and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. It seems illegal immigrants have been stopped, searched and arrested because they fit a particular ethnic profile. The Fourth Amendment requires police to have probable cause before searching people or their property in criminal investigations. Is ethnicity probable cause? In practice, if police search without probable cause, any evidence found in the search may be excluded from court.

Measures range from treating schools, courthouses and hospitals as “safe zones” to restricting the ability of local police to detain people on behalf of federal immigration. The law does nothing to curtail the ability of federal agents to come into the state and deport people or carry out raids, but it does make such actions more difficult for agencies with limited resources (Steinmetz,

Sanctuary cities act as safe havens for many undocumented immigrants, but they are being regulated between the various levels of our federated government system. President Donald Trump did not waste any time and as he vowed to crack down on undocumented immigrants living in the United States, he took immediate action as soon as he was in office. As president of the U.S., Trump has executive powers granted by Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution, therefore he has the authority to execute an order from the executive branch about societal issues. Being that Trump has this power, he did not hesitate to sign an executive order about immigrants. Based on the article, “Sanctuary Fight Viewed as Having Limited Fiscal Impact on Cities” by Keeley

Reason #1 and Evidence One of the reason stated is that this law allows immigrants to be legal here if they've stayed here for 5+ years. This is important because 4.2 million immigrants have been here for 5+ years.
