By: Media Director for Vance Patterson MORGANTON, NC-- Congressional candidate Vance Patterson, running in Western North Carolina’s 11th Congressional District, issued the following statement today following the United States Supreme Court’s ruling on the constitutionality of a controversial and far reaching law passed in the state to curb the effects of illegal immigration. The argument from the State of Arizona centered on the assertion that their law was mostly a parallel with existing Federal law, and simply gave the State enforcement powers. While the Court upheld a major portion of the law that requires police in the state to check the immigration status of people they stop, the ruling also struck down three other major provisions. Conservatives and Arizona’s Governor Jan Brewer are hailing the decision as a victory. “The court decision released on Monday was ultimately a victory for the people of Arizona, and for other states that wish to protect themselves from the unsustainable effects of illegal immigration,” Vance Patterson is a candidate for North Carolina's 11th congressional district in the July 17th Republican primary runoff. Patterson is an entrepreneur in Morganton, NC, and has started 16 companies throughout his career, including two that have been named in “INC. 500 fastest growing companies in America.” NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Wednesday, June 27th, 2012 Contact: Nikki White, Media Director Email: media@vancenc.com Phone: 828-545-6879 End
