PA House Bill 2479 is unethical, unconstitutional, and un-American.
In April, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer signed into law a sweeping piece of legislation that injected her state into the enforcement of federal immigration law and all but codified racial profiling.
Pennsylvania state Rep. Daryl Metcalfe wants our commonwealth to follow Arizona's lead and has introduced House Bill 2479 to do just that.

- Visit your representative and senator. Legislators need to hear from their constituents. They need to know that there are people in their districts who don't want to see Pennsylvania become a police state where the color of a person's skin or the accent of a person's voice becomes a reason for police to conduct an investigation.

- Get active in the media. Policymakers follow the pulse of the public through the media, including letters to the editor in local newspapers, chatter on talk radio, and discussions on blogs, websites, and social media. Use our talking points to write a letter to the editor, call a radio talk show, or interact online.
- Follow the ACLU of PA online. Through the use of our web tools, we'll keep you updated on the fate of the legislation. Join our email list, follow our tweets on Twitter and become a fan on Facebook.
