King: I Defend Joe Arpaio
Thursday, December 15, 2011
Washington, DC- Today the Justice Department announced investigation findings stating that Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio, an ardent defender of liberty and a champion of immigration law has been practicing "discriminatory policing." Congressman Steve King released the following remarks in response to the biased and politically motivated conclusions:
"I defend Joe Arpaio," said King. "I think he needs to continue with the tent city. And I think that the Department of Justice should not be using themselves as a tool, a political tool, to push back against people that are working to enforce the law."
