I disagree with the 9th Circuit. However, I appreciate you sharing the 9th Circuit opinion. Thank you.
Again, I disagree. However, I think if the state just chose to be silent on immigration and happen to have law enforcement policies that happen...
That's not the test. The test is whether a state or local government is interfering with the federal government's exercise of its constitutional...
