Singer Linda Ronstadt joins challenge of AZ immigration law

Singer Linda Ronstadt is lending her voice to a lawsuit by Latino groups challenging Arizona's new law that cracks down on illegal immigration.

At state Capitol news conference Thursday, the Tucson native said, "Mexican-Americans are not going to take this lying down."

The American Civil Liberties Union, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund and the National Immigration Law Center plan a suit to challenge the law.

MALDEF President Thomas Saenz says many Latinos fear implementation of the law but that the legal challenge provides reason for optimism.

Colombian singer Shakira plans to visit Phoenix on Thursday to meet with the city's police chief and mayor over her concerns that the law would lead to racial profiling.

  • I have nothing but respect for latino people. However I'm all for cracking down on illegal immigration. I think it's hilarious when people act like we are violating the illegal immigrant's rights. When they crossed the border illegally they knew exactly what the f*ck they were doing. Deal with it...

  • Im sure the concentration camps and gas chambers can be set up away from the prying media. Then the cleansing can begin.

  • What's the problem? Hey Linda, there isn't a problem with immigration!
    Just do it the right way, don't jump the fence!

    Why can't progressive liberals just say the word, illegal! Is it that hard to say in public or in a printed word form, illegal.

    Nowhere in Arizona or any other southern state that they are against Hispanics. Even we in Canada know the difference between legal immigration and illegal immigration. Legal means applying for US citizenship, and there is a method to application More..
