Arizona's immigration law, SB 1070, has created a climate of fear and hostility for Latinos. Many Latinos have been stopped, detained, and deported without cause. The law has also made it difficult for Latinos to access basic services, such as healthcare and education.

The law has had a particularly devastating impact on the Latino community in Arizona. In the year since SB 1070 was passed, the number of Latinos stopped by police without cause has increased by 50%. The number of Latinos deported from Arizona has also increased by 50%. And the number of Latinos who have been denied access to basic services, such as healthcare and education, has also increased.

The impact of SB 1070 on the Latino community has been devastating. The law has created a climate of fear and hostility that has made it difficult for Latinos to live their lives.

The Human Cost of SB 1070

The human cost of SB 1070 has been immense. The law has torn families apart, caused people to lose their jobs, and made it difficult for Latinos to access basic services.

One of the most devastating impacts of SB 1070 has been the separation of families. Many Latinos have been deported without cause, leaving their families behind in Arizona. These families are now struggling to survive without their loved ones.

SB 1070 has also caused people to lose their jobs. Many Latinos have been fired from their jobs because they were unable to prove their legal status. This has left many families without a source of income.

Finally, SB 1070 has made it difficult for Latinos to access basic services. Many Latinos have been denied access to healthcare, education, and other essential services. This has made it difficult for Latinos to live their lives.

The Fight Against SB 1070

The Latino community in Arizona has been fighting against SB 1070 since it was passed. They have held protests, filed lawsuits, and lobbied lawmakers to repeal the law.

The fight against SB 1070 has been long and difficult, but it has also been successful. In 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down key provisions of the law. And in 2013, the Arizona legislature passed a law that limited the reach of SB 1070.

The fight against SB 1070 is not over. The law is still in effect, and it continues to have a negative impact on the Latino community in Arizona. But the Latino community is determined to continue fighting until the law is repealed.
