Attorney General Adam Laxalt announced today that Nevada will join a multistate coalition suing President Barack Obama’s contentious deportation deferral program, his first major publicized legal action and one he’s carrying out without the backing of Gov. Brian Sandoval.
“Our immigration system is broken and clearly needs to be fixed,” said Laxalt, who vowed to fight the president’s executive action shortly after it was announced in November. “The solution must be a permanent, legal result that includes, not ignores, the other branches of government and their constitutional roles.”
“Gov. Sandoval’s position on President Obama’s executive order has not changed since his announcement in November. He believes our immigration system is broken and it is without question that comprehensive reform is necessary,” spokeswoman Mari St. Martin said in a prepared statement. “He continues to believe that the best course of action is a legislative solution rather than legal action.” http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2015/jan/26/nevada-joins-texas-led-immigration-lawsuit/
Laxalt, who has the support of conservatives in Nevada, did the right thing.
Sandoval, on the other hand, is positioning himself to become the vice president candidate for the GOP establishment candidate- a RINO, whoever it is.
So, good for Laxalt and boos for RINO Sandoval.
