Holly Benson Backs New AZ Immigration Law

While some Florida Republicans are criticizing Arizona for its new law looking to curb illegal immigration, others are praising the measure.

Former Agency for Health Care Administration Secretary Holly Benson, running in a tight Republican primary for the attorney general nomination, blasted the Los Angeles City Council today for voting to boycott business from Arizona due to new law.

Illegal immigration is a serious problem facing our country and it is unfortunate that the Los Angeles City Council came down in support of illegal activity, over the actions of Arizonas attempt to enforce the law, said Benson.

This new law in Arizona is not about racial profiling, as some would have you believe, said Benson. Rather, it is about protecting our borders and ensuring that immigrants living and working in our country are doing so legally.
