Help Stand Up for Immigrant Rights in Georgia

From immigrant rights allies in Georgia:

As some of you know, things in Georgia are getting really ugly, really fast. Our general assembly has been moving AZ style proposals, SB 40 and HB 87 along despite the strong opposition from the business and agricultural community.

In fact, today we learned that Russell Pearce is endorsing HB 87 http://www.accessnorthga.com/detail.php?n=237482&c=10

We would really appreciate if you all could help us by making calls to Governor Nathan Deal 404-656-1776 and letting him know that the country is watching and Georgia would lose its international reputation as a welcoming state for business and tourists. We are focusing on the economic debate; hitting them in their pockets where it hurts! While most states have dropped these proposals including Mississippi, Georgia’s legislators are still at it.

Thank you in advance for your support!

Here is a link to an online petition from change.org.
