US-IMMIGRATION-ARIZONA
Anti-boycott protesters, the Shaw family speak about their son who was murdered by an illegal immigrant, before Los Angeles County supervisors went on to vote 3-2 for Los Angeles County to join a boycott of the state of Arizona, in Los Angeles on June 1, 2010. The law -- Senate Bill 1070, which has not yet gone into effect, empowers local law enforcement in Arizona to check the immigration status of suspects they have stopped for other reasons if there is a reasonable suspicion they are in the country illegally. It specifically bars police from racial profiling. The motion directs the county's chief executive officer to send a letter to Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer and other state leaders calling for the repeal of the law; suspend all travel to the state for county business unless the travel is considered imperative; ban county investments in Arizona securities such as state or municipal bonds; and review all contracts with Arizona-based or headquartered companies and report on how those contracts can be terminated.
