Ariz. gov: Most illegal immigrants smuggling drugs
PHOENIX (AP) - Gov. Jan Brewer said Friday that most illegal immigrants
entering Arizona are being used to transport drugs across the border, an
assertion that critics slammed as exaggerated and racist.
Brewer said the motivation of "a lot" of the illegal immigrants is to enter the
United States to look for work, but that drug rings press them into duty as
drug "mules."
"I believe today, under the circumstances that we're facing, that the majority
of the illegal trespassers that are coming into the state of Arizona are under
the direction and control of organized drug cartels and they are bringing drugs
in," Brewer said.
"There's strong information to us that they come as illegal people wanting to
come to work. Then they are accosted and they become subjects of the drug
cartel," she said.
Brewer's office later issued a statement in response to media reports of her
comments. It said most human smuggling into Arizona is under the direction of
drug cartels, which "are by definition smuggling drugs."
"Unless Gov. Brewer can provide hard data to substantiate her claim that most
undocumented people crossing into Arizona are 'drug mules,' she must retract
such an outrageous statement," said Oscar Martinez, a University of Arizona
history professor whose teaching and research focuses on border issues. "If she
has no data and is just mouthing off for political reasons, as I believe she is
doing, then she must apologize to the people of Arizona for lying to them so
blatantly."
Sen. Jesus Ramon Valdes, a member of the Mexican Senate's northern border
affairs commission, called Brewer's comments racist and irresponsible.
"The majority of people continue to come across in search of work, not to
smuggle drugs," he said. "Most of the drug smuggling is done by people who
intend to do that. That's their livelihood."
Brewer spoke Friday when asked about comments she made in a recent election
debate among Republican candidates for governor.
She said during the June 15 debate that she believed most illegal immigrants
were not entering the United States for work. She then associated illegal
immigrants with drug smuggling, drop houses, extortion and other criminal
activity.
Brewer on April 23 signed a controversial new state immigration enforcement law
that is scheduled toe effect July 29, although five legal challenges already
are pending in federal court, and the U.S. Justice Department may file its own
challenge.
The Arizona law requires police officers enforcing another law to question a
person's immigration status if there's a reasonable suspicion that the person
is in the country illegally.
