NPRC President & CEO Statement on Arizona Immigration Law

“The recently passed Arizona immigration law illustrates a complete disregard for the contributions of Hispanics and Puerto Ricans alike in the state of Arizona. With over approximately 22,000 Puerto Ricans residing in Arizona, this law threatens discrimination against all Hispanics,” stated Rafael Fantauzzi, President and CEO of the National Puerto Rican Coalition. “Puerto Ricans are taking this issue very seriously and we will continue to work with our partners to ensure that discrimination of any kind is not tolerated in America.”
