AR-Petition submitted for illegal immigration measure
Petition submitted for illegal immigration measure
Posted: Jul 02, 2010 5:25 PM CDT
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - Supporters of a proposal aimed at denying state services to illegal immigrants say they've gathered enough signatures to get the measure on the November ballot.
Secure Arkansas submitted more than 78,000 signatures to the Secretary of State's office Friday afternoon, the deadline for petitions to make it on the fall ballot.
The group needed 77,468 signatures, and the Secretary of State's office must verify the signatures before it makes it to the ballot.
The proposal would require anyone 14 or older seeking public benefits from a state agency to sign an oath saying they live legally in the country.
The group says those who falsely fill out an affidavit could face perjury charges. Verification would not be required for emergency medical treatment, prenatal care or public school enrollment.
