Statement by Governor Jan Brewer, Signing of HB 2162

April 30, 2010

“Taking into consideration questions and concerns that have been expressed about the SB1070 legislation I signed last week, today I signed HB 2162 which defines and clarifies even further the proper implementation and enforcement of the law. These changes specifically answer legal questions raised by some who expressed fears that the original law would somehow allow or lead to racial profiling. These new amendments make it crystal clear and undeniable that racial
profiling is illegal, and will not be tolerated in Arizona.
 
“I am proud that the Arizona Legislature has listened carefully to everyone’s concerns, and, in a gesture of statesmanship, acted swiftly and appropriately to lay to rest questions over the possibility of racial profiling. 
 
“Arizona is acting responsibly to address a border security crisis that is not of our making. The federal government’s failure requires us to act to protect our citizens, and we are doing just that.”
