Arizona Launches Website for Donations to Build Fence Along US Border with Mexico
PHOENIX — Arizona launched a website Wednesday to accept donations to pay for fencing along the Mexico border, and a supporter says the $3.8 million people donated to defend the state’s 2010 immigration enforcement law could be just a taste of what to expect.
Gov. Jan Brewer’s legal-defense site for the law known as SB1070 raised money for “an intangible service — you’re paying for a lawyer,” said state Sen. Steve Smith. “This, you can taste and smell what you’re getting — you’re paying for a secure border.”
