AZ: Immigration debate: Mesa asked to adopt version of Utah Compact (NO, NO, NO....STOP THIS BEFORE IT GOES ANY FURTHER!!!!) the compact calls immigration a federal issue and says local police "should focus on criminal activities, not civil violations of federal code," SB 1070 makes it a state crime to be in the country illegally. The compact also says immigration policies should not harm families, the economy or individual liberties. Opinions of the compact vary among Mesa's City Council members and Mayor Scott Smith. It is unclear whether they will formally review the advisory board's recommendation.
