Eleven state attorneys general have filed a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court against the Arizona immigration law SB 1070, oral arguments on which will be heard next month. Here’s the hilarious part:

Because Arizona cannot compel the federal government to remove undocumented residents, SB 1070’s provisions have the primary effect of redirecting undocumented immigrants to other States.

In other words, if Arizona is allowed to assist the feds in enforcing the immigration law, illegals living there (and prospective illegals considering a destination) will move to the states filing the brief, namely New York, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Vermont. But if “undocumented residents” are such a great thing, as the policies of these states (in-state tuition for illegals, anti-E-Verify measures, and so on) clearly suggest, why not welcome more of them? Regardless of the Supremes’ ruling, Arizona taxpayers should buy bus tickets for illegal aliens willing to relocate to these states.
