Congrats, Gov. Brewer, et. al.

Re: Chamber of Commerce of the United States v. Whiting, the 5-3 Supreme Court decision which upholds the Legal Arizona Workers Act of 2007 (that imposes sanctions on employers who hire illegal aliens and requires them to use the federal e-Verify* system for new hires).

Of yesterday's 5-3 ruling, which affirmed the Ninth Circuit's ruling, Carol Helm (in the tiny photo), the director of I.R.O.N., stated, "Today is a giant win for the American Worker." She added, "Rule of law without discrimination has been upheld and must be rigidly enforced."

I'm happy Carol is happy. She's been volunteering for many years on behalf of the cause of immigration reform in Oklahoma. This is an important victory for state activists and patriots like her.

It's also nice to see the Chamber of Commerce taken down a notch.
