Arizona’s top regulation enforcement officer mentioned in a up to date interview she is unafraid to be on one?s feet as much as President-elect Trump on immigration enforcement.
Democratic Legal professional Common Kris Mayes informed the U.Okay.’s Father or mother any plans to build deportation facilities, which she prior to now referred to as “concentration camps,” within the Elegant Canyon Shape could be a nonstarter.
Mayes defended Dreamers, beneficiaries of the Obama-era DACA program, announcing any federal makes an attempt to ship them to their house international locations could be “a bright red line for me.”
“I will be able to no longer be on one?s feet for an struggle to deport them or undermine them,” Mayes mentioned. “I will be able to do the entirety I will legally to combat [family separation or construction of deportation camps].

“Now not on our park.”
The Dreamer moniker originates from the DREAM Act — Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors. It was first proposed by Sen. Richard Durbin, D-Ill., and the late Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, in 2001 and has been reintroduced in several succeeding sessions of Congress by Durbin but has never become law.
Most recently, it was proposed in 2023 by Durbin and his Republican counterpart in Senate Judiciary Committee leadership, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina.
Former President Obama borrowed pieces of the legislation when he instituted DACA, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
Trump previously tried to get rid of DACA but was stopped by the Supreme Court in DHS v. University of California.
“I believe the Excellent Courtroom will in the end see the deserves of shielding them,” Mayes said of Dreamers.
“We wish to give the courts the chance to produce the suitable determination right here, and we’ll be making very robust arguments on that proposition.”
In previous comments reported by the Arizona Mirror, Mayes said the issue with mass deportation proposals from people like Trump and “border czar”-designate Tom Homan is that they can lead to abuses of the system.
Mayes has said she wants to see violent criminal offenders and drug cartel members removed from the U.S.

In the Guardian interview, Mayes credited near-complete border-state cooperation on the matter of immigration.
New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez, California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Mayes are “united,” she said, adding Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is the one border state lawman who is not.
“[W]e are getting to combat for due procedure and for person rights,” she said of herself, Torrez and Bonta.
Mayes also acknowledged the fentanyl crisis and a porous border, saying Arizonans rightly want it rectified.
She reportedly said more federal resources should be spent on additional Border Patrol and prosecutions of cartel-connected people, as opposed to Trump’s idea of using the National Guard to help deport illegal immigrants.
“[W]chicken Arizonans voted for Donald Trump, they didn’t vote to shred the Arizona and U.S. Charter [and] I strongly imagine that,” she told the Guardian.
Fox News Digital reached out to Team Trump and some members of Arizona’s Republican congressional delegation for comment on Mayes’ Guardian interview but did not receive a response by press time.
