Alabama’s Second Thoughts - NYTimes.com - Alabama’s stance on its extremist immigration law is shifting from defiance to damage control. -- Even if lawmakers accept Mr. Strange’s proposals, it still will not undo the harm — to the undocumented, to all Alabamians, to the state’s image and economy. This law is indefensible. The only solution is repeal. Unfortunately, too many of Alabama’s politicians still don’t get it. Mike Hubbard, the House speaker, vowed on Facebook, “we’re not going to repeal or weaken the law, acquiescing to liberal elites’ and the news media’s efforts to intimidate and shame Alabama.” And 12 senators have written to the governor, urging him not to retreat.

Message to Alabama Gov. Bentley: See the Light or Feel the Heat - SEIU.org - Instead of marching backwards in time, Alabama should be looking towards a future that is inclusive and that recognizes and respects everyone - - regardless of the color of their skin. The state must repeal the law. Until the governor and state Legislature see the light, they will feel the heat.
