Well, good afternoon, everyone.
嗯,大家下午好。
And thank you all for being here today to join me as we take another step forward in protecting the state of Arizona.
感谢大家今天来到这里与我一起,我们在保护亚利桑那州方面又向前迈出了一步。
The bill I�m about to sign into law -- Senate Bill 1070 -- represents another tool for our State to use as we work to solve a crisis that we did not create and the federal government has refused to fix: the crisis caused by illegal immigration and Arizona�s porous border.
我即将签署成为法律的法案——参议院第 1070 号法案——代表了我们州在努力解决一场并非由我们造成且联邦政府拒绝解决的危机时使用的另一个工具:非法移民和亚利桑那州漏洞百出的边境造成的危机。
This bill, the Support [Our] Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act , strengthens the laws of our State.
这项法案,即《支持[我们的]执法和安全社区法案》,加强了我们州的法律。
It protects all of us, every Arizona citizen and everyone here in our State lawfully.
它合法地保护我们所有人、每个亚利桑那州公民以及我们州的每个人。
And, it does so while ensuring that the constitutional rights of all in Arizona remain solid, stable, and steadfast.
而且,它这样做的同时确保亚利桑那州所有人的宪法权利保持牢固、稳定和坚定。
For weeks, this legislation has been subject of vigorous debate and intense criticism.
数周以来,这项立法一直受到激烈辩论和严厉批评。
My decision to sign it was by no means made lightly.
我签署该协议的决定绝非轻易做出的。
I have listened patiently to both sides and I have considered the significance of this new law long into the night.
我耐心地听取了双方的意见,并深思熟虑这项新法律的意义。
I have prayed for strength and I have prayed for our State.
我为力量祈祷,为我们的国家祈祷。
I've decided to sign Senate Bill 1070 into law because, though many people disagree, I firmly believe it represents what's best for Arizona.
我决定将参议院第 1070 号法案签署为法律,因为尽管许多人不同意,但我坚信它代表了对亚利桑那州最好的选择。
Border-related violence and crime due to illegal immigration are critically important issues for the people of our State.
非法移民造成的边境暴力和犯罪对于我国人民来说是至关重要的问题。
To my administration, and to me as your governor and as a citizen, there's no higher priority than protecting the citizens of Arizona.
对于我的政府、作为州长和公民的我来说,没有比保护亚利桑那州公民更重要的事情了。
We cannot sacrifice our safety to the murderous greed of drug cartels.
我们不能为了贩毒集团的凶残贪婪而牺牲我们的安全。
We cannot stand idly by as drop houses, kidnappings, and violence compromise our quality of life.
当临时住所、绑架和暴力损害我们的生活质量时,我们不能袖手旁观。
We cannot delay while the destruction happening south of our border -- our international border creeps its way north.
当我们的边界以南发生破坏时,我们不能拖延——我们的国际边界正在向北蔓延。
We in Arizona have been more than patient waiting for Washington to act, but decades of federal inaction and misguided policy have created a dangerous and unacceptable situation.
我们亚利桑那州一直非常耐心地等待华盛顿采取行动,但几十年来联邦政府的不作为和误导性政策造成了危险和不可接受的局面。
Yesterday, I announced the steps I was taking to enhance security along our borders.
昨天,我宣布了为加强我们边境安全而采取的措施。
Today, with my unwavering signature on this legislation, Arizona strengthens its security within our borders.
今天,随着我在这项立法上坚定不移的签署,亚利桑那州加强了其境内的安全。
Let me be clear, though.
不过,让我说清楚。
My signature today represents my steadfast support for enforcing the law -- both against illegal immigration and against racial profiling.
我今天的签名代表了我对执法的坚定支持——反对非法移民和种族定性。
This legislation mirrors federal laws regarding immigration enforcement.
该立法反映了有关移民执法的联邦法律。
Despite erroneous and misleading statements suggesting otherwise, the new State misdemeanor crime of willful failure to complete or carry an alien registration document is adopted verbatim from the same offense found in federal statute.
尽管存在错误和误导性的陈述,但新的故意不填写或携带外国人登记文件的国家轻罪是从联邦法规中发现的同一罪行中逐字采用的。
I will not tolerate racial discrimination or racial profiling in Arizona.
我不会容忍亚利桑那州的种族歧视或种族定性。
'Cause I feel so strongly on this subject, I have worked for weeks with legislators to amend Senate Bill 1070, to strengthen its civil rights protection.
因为我对这个问题的感受如此强烈,所以我与立法者一起工作了数周来修改参议院第 1070 号法案,以加强其公民权利保护。
That effort led to new language in the bill, language prohibiting law enforcement officers from -- and I quote -- "solely considering race, color or national origin in implementing the requirements of this section" -- end of quote.
这一努力导致法案中出现了新的措辞,禁止执法人员——我引用——“在执行本节的要求时仅考虑种族、肤色或国籍”——引用结束。
The bill already requires that it -- and I quote again -- "shall be implemented in a manner consistent with federal laws regulating immigration, protecting the civil rights of all persons, and respecting the privileges and immunities of the United States citizens" -- end of quote.
该法案已经要求它——我再次引用——“应以符合规范移民、保护所有人的公民权利以及尊重美国公民的特权和豁免的联邦法律的方式实施”——引文结束。
While the general protection was already included, I believe the issue is so important we needed to make it crystal clear.
虽然一般保护已经包括在内,但我认为这个问题非常重要,我们需要将其说得一清二楚。
And I believe that we need to more than simply inscribe it in the statute.
我认为我们需要的不仅仅是将其写入法规。
Words in a law book are of no use if our police officers are not properly trained on the provisions of Senate Bill 1070, including its civil rights provisions.
如果我们的警察没有接受过关于参议院第 1070 号法案条款(包括其民权条款)的适当培训,那么法律书中的文字是没有用的。
Today I am issuing an executive order directing the Arizona Peace Officers Standards and Training Board, AZ POST , to develop training to appropriately implement Senate Bill 1070.
今天,我发布一项行政命令,指示亚利桑那州和平官员标准和培训委员会 (AZ POST) 开展培训,以适当实施参议院第 1070 号法案。
Importantly, this training will include what does and does not constitute reasonable suspicion that a person is not legally present in the United States.
重要的是,这种培训将包括什么构成和不构成合理怀疑一个人在美国没有合法居留的情况。
Currently, AZ POST serves approximately 170 law enforcement agencies, encompassing over 16,000 sworn peace officers and 9,000 correctional service officers and its 16 training academies.
目前,AZ POST 为大约 170 个执法机构提供服务,其中包括 16,000 多名宣誓就职的和平官员和 9,000 名惩教人员以及 16 个培训学院。
The AZ POST Board of Directors includes the Arizona attorney general, the director of the Arizona Department of Public Safety, the Arizona Department of Corrections, several county sheriffs and local police departments.
AZ POST 董事会包括亚利桑那州总检察长、亚利桑那州公共安全部主任、亚利桑那州惩教部、几位县治安官和当地警察部门。
I'm also asking the board to make recommendations on possible improvements to Senate Bill 1070 before the end of the year.
我还要求董事会在年底前就参议院第 1070 号法案的可能改进提出建议。
For 28 years in public service, I have worked without fail to solve problems diligently and practically.
从事公务28年来,我始终勤勤恳恳、踏实解决问题。
And I've always done so, always, with an eye towards civility.
我一直都是这样做的,总是注重礼貌。
And always with the greatest respect for the rule of law.
并且始终对法治表示最大的尊重。
This new law is no different.
这项新法律也不例外。
As committed as I am to protecting our State from crime associated with illegal immigration, I am equally committed to holding law enforcement accountable should this statute ever be misused to violate an individual's rights.
正如我致力于保护我们的国家免受与非法移民相关的犯罪侵害一样,我同样致力于在该法规被滥用侵犯个人权利时追究执法部门的责任。
Respect for the rule of law means respect for every law.
尊重法治意味着尊重每一条法律。
I have led the way every day in every office I have ever held.
在我担任过的每一个办公室里,我每天都在带头。
That will not change.
这不会改变。
I have also spent my career in service to Arizona working to bring people together, no matter the color of their skin, no matter the depth of our disagreements.
我的职业生涯还为亚利桑那州服务,致力于将人们团结在一起,无论他们的肤色如何,无论我们的分歧有多深。
This bill and this issue will be no exception.
这项法案和这个问题也不例外。
While protecting our citizens is paramount, it cannot come at the expense of diversity that has made Arizona so great.
虽然保护我们的公民至关重要,但它不能以牺牲使亚利桑那州如此伟大的多样性为代价。
Nor can safety mean a compromise of freedom for some while we, the many, turn a blind eye.
安全也不意味着对某些人的自由的妥协,而我们,即大多数人,却视而不见。
We must acknowledge the truth.
我们必须承认事实。
People across America are watching Arizona, seeing how we implement this law, ready to jump on even the slightest misstep.
美国各地的人们都在关注亚利桑那州,关注我们如何实施这项法律,并准备好迎接哪怕是最轻微的失误。
Some of those people from outside our State have an interest in seeing us fail.
其中一些来自我们国家以外的人有兴趣看到我们失败。
They will wait for a single slip-up, one mistake, and then they will work day and night to create headlines and get the face time they so desperately covet.
他们会等待一个失误,一个错误,然后他们会夜以继日地工作以创造头条新闻并获得他们如此渴望的见面时间。
We cannot give them that chance.
我们不能给他们这样的机会。
We must use this new tool wisely and fight for our safety with the honor Arizona deserves.
我们必须明智地使用这个新工具,并以亚利桑那州应得的荣誉为我们的安全而战。
We must react calmly.
我们必须冷静地应对。
We must enforce the law evenly, and without regard to skin, color, accent, or social status.
我们必须公平地执行法律,不考虑肤色、肤色、口音或社会地位。
We must prove the alarmists and the cynics wrong.
我们必须证明危言耸听者和愤世嫉俗者是错误的。
I know in my heart that this great State, my home for more than 40 years, is up to that task.
我心里知道,这个伟大的国家,我四十多年来的家园,能够胜任这项任务。
I believe every one of us wants to be safe and none of us wants to compromise on the subject of civil rights.
我相信我们每个人都希望安全,没有人希望在公民权利问题上妥协。
I believe we must love and honor those who fight beside us just as we must love and honor those who look and believe nothing like we do.
我相信我们必须爱和尊重那些与我们并肩作战的人,就像我们必须爱和尊重那些看起来和相信的东西与我们不同的人一样。
I believe Arizona, like America, is governed by laws -- good laws, well-intentioned laws, laws that confer respect, that demand respect in return.
我相信亚利桑那州,就像美国一样,是受法律管辖的——良好的法律,善意的法律,给予尊重的法律,要求尊重作为回报的法律。
In his third State of the Union Address, President Theodore Roosevelt said -- and I quote:
西奥多·罗斯福总统在他的第三次国情咨文中说道——我引用一下:
No man is above the law and no man is below it.
没有人凌驾于法律之上,也没有人低于法律。
Nor do we ask any man's permission when we require him to obey it.
当我们要求任何人服从时,我们也不会征求他的许可。
Obedience to the law is demanded as a right, not asked as a favor.
遵守法律是一项权利,而不是一种恩惠。
So let us move forward ever mindful of our rights, ever faithful to the law, and ever conscious of our bonds as Arizonans and the blessings we share together.
因此,让我们继续前进,牢记我们的权利,永远忠实于法律,永远意识到我们作为亚利桑那州人的纽带以及我们共同分享的祝福。
