SB1070

The Arizona Republic published the entire text of Arizona's Immigration Law, SB1070 (including HB 2162, which amended it.)  It took 4 full pages to print it.  Both 1070 and 2162 amended the existing law and the Republic marked the new passages.  The Republic also had University of Arizona law professor Gabriel Chin help explain some of the law's legal issues.  I am slugging my way through the reading and so far much of the state's law mimics Federal law.

 So, after trying to understand the yada, yada, yada of this bill and deciding not to tear my hair out over it, I searched for a more sane voice who had already written what I thought was a much better explanation of the key parts.  Therefore, I direct your attention to the following by Ray Suarez who writes on the Huffington Post:
