| Patriot, I need your help.
Let me lay it out for you.
I continue to be under attack by Barack Obama's
federal government. Two years ago, the Obama
Justice Department sued me for so-called "civil rights" violations
which turned out to be purely politically motivated, based on the timing
of their lawsuit. Filed just months before the election, it was a
blatant
attempt on their part to influence my re-election as Sheriff. But I won with your support.
Then, just two
months after I was re-elected after being targeted by the media and
millions of dollars in outside special interest groups, a recall
campaign was
launched against me.
But I beat them with your support.
Then, in the middle of the recall effort a federal
judge claimed that my office engaged in racial profiling while we were
enforcing illegal immigration laws. My office was following the
guidelines
that were laid out to us by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement
agency. Yet, I'm the one they pin the "racial profiling" label on. That same judge has now ordered a "federal monitor" to oversee the actions of my office. This is an egregious attempt by the federal government to
take over my office and keep me from doing the job I was elected to do.
Shortly after that judge's ruling, another
federal judge ruled that we can no longer detain illegal immigrants that
pay a coyote, or professional smuggler, to sneak them across our
borders!
You see, Arizona passed a law years ago that made human smuggling a
crime. Yet, in every other instance, paying someone to break the law
for you
means that you too are guilty of a crime. But now, a federal judge is saying local law enforcement has no power to detain these
criminals.
Do you see a pattern here? The federal government is going out of their way to tie the hands of my office
and my deputies to enforce the law - and take over the office of a constitutionally elected Sheriff! This is unacceptable and it is why we
are appealing these rulings. We'll go all the way to the Supreme Court if we have to. This aggression will not stand.
But you know how
pervasive and aggressive the federal government can be, especially under Barack Obama's Justice Department.
Maricopa County in
Arizonahas been the gateway into the United States for illegal
immigrants, human smuggling, drug-trafficking and illegal weapons for
years now. But
I'm the bad guy for trying to stop it? That's why I need your immediate support today. Will you stand with me by following this link and making
an instant online contribution of $25, $50, $100 or more?
I am sure this is not the end of it. They'll keep coming after
me until I completely surrender. That's not going to happen. I'm going
to continue doing the job I was elected to do, and the job the people
want me
to do.
I've spent 50 years in law enforcement, including as a
top official with the federal Drug Enforcement Administration around the
world, and 21 years as Sheriff. I'm not about to back down to a bunch
of political threats from a federal government that is simply out of
control.
Between the federal government harassing me, radical activists
protesting and burning me in effigy, and the numerous death threats
against me and my family, it would be easy to surrender in this fight,
retire from office and go away. But I won't do that.
I'm
going
to keep fighting for what I know is right. I took an oath to protect
and defend the US Constitution and I will keep that oath until my last
breath.
But I need your help. You've been such a strong supporter that I must ask for your help again.
Will you show your immediate support and
stand with me by following this link and making an instant online contribution of $25, $50, $100 or more?
I have already filed the
necessary paperwork to run for another term - much to the angst and
consternation of my political opponents. They would just rather see me
worn down
and defeated but they have no idea how much more fight I have left in
me.
But I cannot do it alone.
Will you please make a contribution to "Elect
Sheriff Joe Arpaio" today? Your help and support will give me the resources I need to stand and fight against these groups that wish to see
me go away.
And, a new law was recently passed here in Arizona
that raises the contribution limits for my campaign. Those new limits
are
now $5,000 per person, which covers the primary and general election
cycles. I know that's a lot, so any amount you can give today, $500,
$250, $100,
$50 or even $35, is greatly appreciated.
Please click here
to make a contribution today. I
would be forever grateful if you would continue supporting my efforts
and send a signal to my political opponents that I'm not done fighting
just yet!
Thank you for everything you have done. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Sheriff Joe Arpaio Maricopa County,
Arizona
P.S. Please don't delete this email.
It's clear there is a pattern here that shows the federal government
is
coming after me. They don't want me to expose their hypocrisy in
enforcing illegal immigration laws and it doesn't fit their political
agenda. I'm
up against the most powerful government in the world and I need your
help today! Thank you.
P.P.S. We must get the word out about this.
Please do me one more favor after making a
contribution please forward this email to at least five of your friends or family members who share our values in upholding the Rule of
Law! Again, I thank you for your support.
