In a previous post, we caught Arizona governor Jan Brewer lying repeatedly about the anti-immigrant law she had just signed. She kept saying that “under SB 1070 there must first be reasonable suspicion that you are breaking some OTHER non-immigration law before an officer can ask a person about their legal status.” But if you […]
