The American Immigration Lawyers
Association has vowed to boycott the state of Arizona, canceling their fall national convention at the Scottsdale Marriott.
The boycott comes hours after Gov. Jan Brewer signed Senate Bill 1070 into law.
"Right after the bill was signed, our board of governors
had an emergency meeting and voted on whether or not we would keep the conference in Scottsdale," said former AILA chair Mo Goldman, a Tucson attorney.
The vote to cancel and relocate the convention was nearly unanimous, Goldman said.
