ASU Student Group Under Fire for Following The Law – Christopher Campbell

A firestorm has erupted at ASU over support from an officially recognized student group, College Republicans United (CRU) for the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. The conservative student organization has openly embraced an America First agenda and opposed ASU’s DEI policies and the sanctuary movement supported by campus progressives and pro-immigrant groups.

Last week CRU announced a campus tabling event to educate students about the presence of illegal aliens enrolled at ASU, a taxpayer supported public institution. The result has been denunciation and alarm among campus liberals and the ‘woke’ media. At the Friday event,  campus  liberals shouted and hurled epithets at CRU students who were manning their table in full compliance with campus regulations. The event ended abruptly with an arrest by campus police of an individual who became violent and overturned the CRU table. In addition, a death threat,  originating from a Maricopa County elementary school internet account during school hours is currently under investigation. Sources within ICE confirm that several tips regarding illegals on campus were received during or shortly after the event.

In a social media posting, Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes denounced the student conservatives for “abhorrent behavior”.  Aliento at ASU,  a pro-immigrant group  issued a statement demanding that ASU adopt a policy to protect students in the country illegally by preventing ICE from enforcing US immigration laws on campus. According to a  January 31st report by the Arizona Republic, the Chicano/Latino Law Student Association stated that they were committed to “protecting the ‘Dreamer’ Community at ASU” and denounced CRU for allegedly violating  anti-discrimination provisions in the Student Code of Conduct.

According to several CRU members, who asked not to be named out of fear of reprisal, some of the media reports have been tinged with anti-white racism. CRU notes that it is a civic duty to report a crime to law enforcement. And that includes the presence of illegal aliens on an Arizona state campus. As a result of the national  publicity,  since Friday and through the weekend,  donations to CRU have shown an  uptick.  Similar events at CRU chapters at other colleges including Iowa State College and Pitt State College in Pennsylvania are being planned. Members of the  Oklahoma Federation of College Republicans are also considering staging events  supporting campus security and a crackdown on illegals on campus.

The response to Friday’s event from Arizona’s progressive, pro-immigrant State Legislators has been predictable.

So was the response from ASU.

College Republicans United is honored to take the fight for an America First immigration policy to the college campuses of America.  We are doing what we can with the resources available to us. But college students don’t have a lot of money. Donations to support our mission will go to organize and educate college students on America First policies and to promote campus security by cooperating with Federal law enforcement in the removal of illegal aliens from our nation’s college campuses. No one associated with Republicans United or College Republicans United is salaried. All are volunteers.  Donations may be made HERE.

  1. Since this is a state affair, there is a reminder of Marxist-Maoist Democrats hold the Arizona governor, Attorney general and Secretary of state positions and the AG’s remarks are to be expected. Also expected should be a strong response from the AZ GOP. Civil rights law has been broken by Leftists who control faculty and student organizations allowing attacks on any conservative group.
    Hopefully there will be an uprising of all who elected Trump-Vance last November 5th. These actions taken against Republicans United must be investigated and appropriate punishments administered. This matter must spill over into an effort to replace Governor Hobbs and her band of merry Marxist-Maoists Democrats in the next election.
