How Congress botched immigration reform

By David S. BroderThursday, April 29, 2010; A17

Many in the media, including my Post colleagues Eugene Robinson, Richard Cohen and Michael Gerson have written powerful and appropriate columns decrying the action of the Arizona legislature and Gov. Jan Brewer in passing and signing a punitive law aimed at illegal immigrants.
If the law goes into effect despite promised constitutional challenges, local police in Arizona will be able to stop people they suspect may not belong in this country and require them to produce papers attesting that they are legal citizens. Jail terms for trespassing await anyone without the documentation.
