Racial profiling is officially legal in Arizona.

"I do not know what an illegal immigrant looks like," declared Governor Brewer of Arizona as she signed SB 1070, the nation's harshest anti-immigrant law that allows law enforcement officials to arrest people based on whether they look, sound or act undocumented.

For people like Rep. Bilbray, it means recognizing people from the type of shoes they wear. Yes, shoes.

Governor Brewer failed to stand up for Arizona and do the right thing but you can take action now.
Please sign the petition asking the Obama Administration and the DHS not to cooperate with SB 1070, and furthermore, start taking leadership in pushing for real CIR.

Yesterday Governor Brewer of Arizona signed a bill requiring police to harass or arrest anyone who "appears to be an undocumented immigrant." This bill will create an America where people are racially profiled, our fragile economy is further damaged, and our neighborhoods are less safe because good people fear the police. This law could spread across the country, if you and I don't take action to stop it.

Do we want to live in an America where this is acceptable? Or will we live in a country where 12 million people have a path to citizenship, children aren't torn away from their parents, and police can protect our cities and neighborhoods because they have the trust of those living there.

Sign this petition to the President and Congress saying that you stand for the America that values people and their families, the economy, and our public safety.

Governor Brewer provided a clear illustration for why we need comprehensive immigration reform. Thousands of people have been gathering at the Arizona statehouse for the 24-hour vigil that's been ongoing since the state legislature passed the bill last Monday. In addition, more than 7.000 Reform Immigration FOR America supporters in Arizona called and faxed the Governor to tell her that if she signs this bill, she'll do so without the support of her state.

Will you help us fight this bill in Arizona and continue to build the movement for better immigration policy?

We'll take these petitions and deliver them to the President and leadership in Congress. President Obama is paying attention – in response to our efforts already, he said, "Our failure to act responsibly at the federal level will only open the door to irresponsibility by others."

He couldn't be more right – we must stop this in Arizona before it makes its way across the country. Please join me in opposing this bill today.
