SB1070 was submitted to ALEC before it was introduced to the legislature. ALEC membership consists of state legislators from around the country and private companies, but most of the funding comes from private firms like CCA.

Arizona reduced the maximum incarceration for this offense to much less than what the state typically requires for class 1 misdemeanors. The illegals will be back out on the streets.

"According to Hough, the main difference between the final version of the Support Our Law Enforcement Act as signed into law in Arizona and the Sanctuary Cities Act that ALEC is promoting across the country is that the ALEC legislation carries more stringent penalties under the criminal trespass section than the Arizona law.

Under the Sanctuary Cities Act’s criminal trespassing provision, first offences are still Class 1 misdemeanors, but there is no 20- to 30-day cap on incarceration as the final version of Arizona’s S.B. 1070 provides. Additionally, the Arizona legislation classifies subsequent offenses as misdemeanors and the Sanctuary Cities Act classifies repeat offenses as felonies, which carry lengthier terms of incarceration."
