excerpts from Tulsa World article:
A U.S. citizen was arrested under the state's controversial new anti-illegal immigrant law overnight in Tulsa County, an opponent of the law said Thursday.
The woman was arrested for transporting her boyfriend, who was an illegal alien, said the Rev. Miguel Rivera, president of the National Coalition of Latino Clergy and Christian Leaders.
Rivera and the Rev. Victor Orta said Thursday that they have faith that U.S. District Judge James Payne will eventually declare the law unconstitutional.
I wouldn't be so sure. This is the same Judge James H. Payne who didn't pass muster when George W. Bush tried to appoint him to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.
