Repeal SB 1070!



Due to the passing of SB 1070 in Arizona:
*Criminalization of all undocumented immigrants as "trespassers" in the state of Arizona. All undocumented workers and their families are subjected to arrest and conviction for misdemeanors, and in some cases felony charges for the new crime of "trespass".

*Legalization of unchecked racial profiling by police of anyone they "suspect" is undocumented.

*Police now have the authority to enforce federal immigration law and arrest people who cannot produce identification proving their legal residency in the U.S.

*Makes seeking work illegal for day laborers and forces all individuals, regardless of immigration status or citizenship, to carry identification papers or be subjected to detention and even deportation.
