The Obama administration has reportedly asked a judge in Arizona to dismiss a lawsuit by the state claiming the federal government has failed to secure the border with Mexico, Reuters reports.
According to the news provider, the state of Arizona and Governor Jan Brewer are embroiled in a legal battle with the president over the crack down on illegal immigration and the smuggling of weapons and drugs across the border.
In February, Arizona sued the Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security over accusations that the government did not enforce immigration law.
