This protest has no name but it was part of the immigration movement that was going on at the time.   This law came to pass in Arizona   incriminating Immigrants. The Arizona Senate passed this law. This was passed 6 years ago and it got signed by the Arizona Governor this scared a lot of people.   Meanwhile Obama was trying to revoke the 1070 law and trying his best to start an immigration reform.

         The 1070 bill was assaulting a lot of Immigrants out of nowhere. There was a lot of Panic ad outrage.   A lot of Immigrants that had good businesses here had to flee leave town get out of Arizona   moved to the other states    to stay away from the state   and avoid the actual 1070 law. This law. Prohibits state and local law enforcement from restricting the enforcement of federal immigration laws.

. Requires law enforcement, in making a lawful stop, detention, or arrest for another law, to make a reasonable attempt to determine the person's immigration status where reasonable suspicion exists that the person is not lawfully present in the country.

Creates a new misdemeanor offense for the willful failure to complete or carry an immigrant registration document under certain circumstances.

Authorizes a peace officer involved in enforcement related to human smuggling to lawfully stop anyone in a motor vehicle on reasonable suspicion that the person is violating a civil traffic law that creates misdemeanor offenses, in certain circumstances, for stopping to hire and pick up passengers for work while blocking traffic, or getting hired in such a fashion, and applying for or soliciting work while unlawfully present in the country.

 This act creates misdemeanor offenses (or felonies if 10 or more illegal immigrants are involved) for unlawfully transporting or concealing an illegal immigrant or encouraging one to enter or remain in the country illegally.

 This authorizes a peace officer to arrest a person without a warrant on probable cause that the person has committed a public offense that makes the person removable from the country.

 This requires employers to keep employee eligibility records for three years or the duration of employment

 It allows employers to raise an affirmative defense of entrapment to a charge of knowingly or intentionally employing unauthorized immigrants.

While adding to the list of reasons a peace officer must remove and either immobilize or impound a vehicle.

     The immigration movement started to protest outside of the Governor’s office after she signed the Document for the law to pass. They stood outside shouting saying this was an act of discrimination and outrage. Over 400 immigrants stayed there protesting for 3 days. Luckily for us President Obama terminated the law and started a piece of the immigration reform but still the movement is still at work today. This time the movement also involve citizens of one race the Hispanic race joined forces because even without the law its gotten out of line.  It involves an enterprise owner named Donald Trump who is running for president this year. Last year Trump insulted all Latinos calling them delinquents drug dealing immigrants he started a war and the movement rose to the surface especially because Trump is running for president the pleasure is of but we still don’t know the outcome and when the movement will end.

      This project is a little challenging for me based on a law that got terminated even though the movement still goes on. What worries me is the amount of research that will be done and found on the law. Now that the movement is stronger than ever people think that the republican candidates will raise t from the dead. The 1070 identity is still tied to the movement but all the evidence will be hard to find.
