DescriptionRepublicans say illegal immigration from Mexico will be Governor Napolitano’s Achilles’ heel in her bid for reelection.

“By sleeping through the greatest crisis of our time — presumably for fear of being called a racist — the governor is on the wrong side of history and is breaching her duty to defend the lawful residents of Arizona.”

Of the more than two-dozen immigration related bills introduced in the Legislature this year, Ms. Napolitano, so far, has vetoed three and signed two. As of May 12, four more immigration bills were awaiting her decision, and one was pending final legislative action.
