Dennis DeConcini: “I believe SB 1070 is ill-founded, mean-spirited, and divisive.”

SB 1070 targets those with brown skin, and in my State those are my neighbors, my friends, and successful business associates.

I have the same problem, sitting around here for all this time, when now we find out why. I mean I understand sometimes you want to accommodate people so they can go to a dinner, and next year they will not be able to go to these dinners.

We have unduly harmed our legal Latino residents in this process.

We believe strongly that the recent calls for withdrawal of the area in last year's questionable House Natural Resources Committee emergency resolution violate the spirit of that 1983-84 agreement.
