AG Approves Language for Immigration Ballot Initiative

Sorry I took so long to get this to you. As you all know by now, McDaniel has approved the language of the ballot title. He has accomplished on key goal, however, which is to reduce the amount of time available to gather the necessary signatures for the measure to succeed. It was going to be difficult enough with the limited financial resources available to Secure Arkansas but it will be much more difficult in the remaining time. It will be an uphill fight. With enthusiastic and organized leadership they can get enough signitures.

Once on the ballot, it will pass overwhelmingly, save for the very real possibility of a court challenge which the "Friendship" Coalition will surely mount. Their financial resources easily dwarf those of Secure Arkansas. If it gets to that point, support will, no doubt, arise.

Andrew DeMillo has the specifics for the AP.
