An Arizona lawmaker thinks he's found a way to break the logjam in the state government standstill on illegal immigration.

Representative Russell Pearce of Mesa is known for his heartfelt speeches on illegal immigration.

Pearce has been working for weeks with members of his own party to forge a comprehensive immigration bill they could send to Governor Janet Napolitano.

But now Pearce is pushing to place the measure on the November ballot.

Pearce tells the East Valley Tribune that Napolitano is the worst governor in the nation when it comes to immigration and asks why he should trust her on the issue.

Republicans hope if the issue makes the ballot, they can get enough Republicans to the polls to unseat the popular Democratic governor and replace her with a Republican
