Dear Robert,

The law the Arizona legislature just passed putting towns and cities under the gun to enforce federal immigration laws is dangerous, vindictive, and wrong.

As a candidate for California attorney general, believe me, I've given a lot of thought to what laws mean in the lives of real people.

This new law mandating the questioning of anyone who so much as looks like an immigrant could mean an incredible intrusion into the life of virtually anyone -- although in practice, it's clearly a stealth assault on Latino Arizonans.

When racism rears its ugly head like this, the most dangerous thing we can do is stay quiet.

Join me in calling on my fellow candidates for attorney general -- Democratic and Republican alike -- to speak out against this monstrous new law in Arizona.

This law is bound to increase racial profiling and discrimination in Arizona.

Having worked for a federal judge in San Diego earlier in my career, I'm very familiar with immigration law. Clearly, America needs comprehensive immigration reform -- but Arizona's solution is absolutely the wrong approach.

As your next attorney general, I would fight to protect the civil liberties of all Californians, standing strongly against any attempt to repeat Prop 187, the discriminatory California initiative from 1994 that prefigured this Arizona law.

Members of the legal community are swinging into action to see how they can challenge -- and hopefully strike -- the law on constitutional grounds or based on conflicts with federal statutes. I fully support those efforts.

But it's the patriotic duty of every American to stand up, get involved, and speak out on behalf of the freedoms this country was founded to protect.

Sign my petition now: Call on all California attorney general candidates to speak out against this abuse of the law in Arizona.

Discrimination, in any form, at any time, is just plain wrong.

Thank you for your support, and thank you for doing what's right.

Sincerely,

Chris Kelly?
Democratic Candidate for?
California Attorney General
