Suing Arizona is Good. Comprehensive Immigration Reform is Better!

Wednesday, July 7

No to Arizona, Yes to Immigration Reform Yesterday, the US Department of Justice announced that they are suing the state of Arizona over its recent immigration law, SB 1070.

Well it's about time!

The law, which is set to go into effect later this month, would mandate racial profiling. It has been denounced by civil rights leaders, law enforcement officials, elected officials from around the country, and even the President.

Ordinary citizens like you have stood up against Arizona's unjust law - with marches and rallies in Washington, DC, across Washington state, and across the country.

Thank them for taking this important step toward fighting hate. Remind them, however, that this is not enough, that we need comprehensive immigration reform.

If the federal government doesn't do its job, more states will follow Arizona's lead.

We can't let that happen!

Click here. It will only take a few minutes. We won't be satisfied until comprehensive immigration reform is a reality!
