: DiscriminationsArizona Civil Rights Initiative Submits Signatures
The Arizona Civil Rights Initiative has submitted 334,658 signatures with the Secretary of State's office, 100,000 more than the number required to qualify for the ballot.
BAMN has filed suit to keep the initiative off the ballot because, as national director Shanta Driver explained, ?she fears a majority of Arizonans will vote for it.?
In addition, BAMN claims that it is ?deceptive? to describe a measure that would prohibit discriminating against, or granting preferential treatment to, any individual because of race, ethnicity, or gender as a civil rights measure.
There is plenty of deception in this debate, but it is not coming from supporters of ACRI.
