Document United States, Petitioner v. Helaman Hansen, 22-179, Brief amici curiae of Arizona et al, Other (U.S. Sep. 28, 2022)
September30, 2022 The Honorable Scott Harris Clerk of the Court Supreme Court of the United States OneFirst Street NE Washington D.C. 20543 Re: United States v. Hansen, No. 22-179 DearMr.
Harris, I write to you concerning the AmicusBrief that the State of Arizonafiled in United States v. Hansen, No, 22-179, on September 28, 2022.
The brief incorrectly lists Attorney General William Tong on behalf of the State of Connecticut on the inside cover page and on page 20 of the AmicusBrief.
Instead, Connecticut’s Chief State’s Attorney, Patrick J. Griffin, should have been identified as the counsel representing the State of Connecticut.
Weapologize for the error and would appreciate if you would changethe signature block on the two pages referenced aboveto display the following for the State of Connecticut:

Brief amici curiae of Arizona et al - Main Document

Document United States, Petitioner v. Helaman Hansen, 22-179, Brief amici curiae of Arizona et al, Main Document (U.S. Sep. 28, 2022)
The Ninth Circuit’s Decision Jeopardizes The Constitutionality Of Similarly-Worded Criminal Laws In All 50 States The First Amendment overbreadth doctrine exists to prevent the government from prohibiting “a substantial amount of protected speech” by passing facially overbroad statutes.
When courts use hypotheticals instead of real-world conduct to invalidate statutes on their face, it “threaten[s] to short circuit the democratic process by preventing laws embodying the will of the people from being implemented in a manner consistent with the Constitution.” Wash. State Grange, 552 U.S. at 451.
States have a vital interest in enforcing these criminal statutes to protect victims of this conduct and the Ninth Circuit’s conclusion that the terms “encourage” or “induce” are unconstitutionally overbroad based on hypothetical situations risks grave harm.
Had the Ninth Circuit asked that “easy” question, it should have concluded that the “additional element” of encouraging or inducing a noncitizen to illegally enter the United States for a commercial advantage or private financial gain “substantially narrows the reach of the relevant language,” leaving “little doubt” that the statute’s legitimate sweep “greatly exceeds any plausible overbreadth.” Id. at 80a.
Here, for example, Respondent’s conduct of encouraging or inducing noncitizens to illegally enter the United States for his personal financial gain (each victim paying between $550 and $10,000, see Pet. App. at 2a–3a) falls squarely within the legitimate aim of the aggravated circumstances set forth in the applicable statute.
