Villaseñor, Dupnik join flood filing anti-SB 1070 briefs
Tucson-area law enforcement officials added to the pile of briefs filed with the Supreme Court this week opposing Arizona's SB 1070 illegal immigration law.

"I look forward to SB 1070 being heard by the U.S. Supreme Court in April so that states like mine may finally receive guidance on this critical issue," she said in a press release.
