Haymarket Squares Perform at Arizona’s SB1070 Rally

Seconds after signing with an “unwavering” hand one of the most anti-immigrant pieces of legislation in the United States, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer returned to the podium, grabbed on to both sides of the lectern, and audibly sighed. A political rather than a practical or moral decision to approve SB1070 seemed to be already weighing heavily on this Republican’s shoulders, enough to crush her were it not for the hope this may be just the right move to get her reelected in November.

UPDATE June 10th 2010

We've been saying that it's section E, E1 and E2 under 11-1051 on page 1 which contains the exchange of law abiding citizens data with homeland security.

The "final" version of the bill has it in section F, F1 and F2. Everyone I'm bccing have put E, E1 and E2 in their analysis. Please change that to F, F1 and F2 and link using the link above which is the most up to date version.

I fully expect that once cogent criticisms of the above version circulate in the news, that Pearce will "find" the "real" final version of the bill and we'll get another version switching sections around again. Just be prepared. But right now, the provision handing over law abiding citizens data to homeland security, thereby turning Arizona licenses into national ids, is in 11-1051 F, F1 and F2. Please update any analyses you have posted.
