The Anti-Defamation League Opposes Proposition 200

November 01, 2004/ Tron Nick

The Arizona Regional Board of Directors of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has voted overwhelmingly to oppose the passage of Proposition 200. In a joint statement, Helen Stern, ADL Regional Board Chair and Bill Straus, Arizona Regional Director, stated: ADL policy supports the humane treatment of all persons regardless of race, ancestry or national origin. Proposition 200 is poorly worded and does not provide guidance to public officials regarding its implementation. As a result, we are concerned about the potential for abuse of Latinos, Spanish speakers and people of color. We are also concerned about the ?chilling effect? this initiative may have in discouraging Mexican-American citizens from seeking and obtaining vital services, and on state and local employees, such as police and firefighters, from rendering assistance.
