On Monday the 0th US Circuit Court of Appeals allowed 11 Foreign Nations to file Friend of the Court letter in regards to Arizona Bill SB 1070 [Arizona Immigration Law].
This brings up several significant Constitutional Questions.
1. Do foreign States have standing to file on an international subject? This is a Challenge between the State of Arizona and the United States Governments, the bill and US Challenge does not effect a foreign state, only US laws.
2. This filing is conducted by the USDOJ, and Executive Branch, which does not have the Authority to Regulate trade or Naturalization, this is the domain of Congress. by introducing Foreign Nations in the respect to immigration, this is to assume a power of determining the Natural Status of an Individual without the consent of Congress.
3. By allowing Foreign Nations to file once again dealing with the domain of Foreign Nationals within the United States, a domain only of Congress, the Judiciary is now in a role to determine the status of a person without regards of the will of Congress, who has the sole authority to set rules of Naturalization.
