Secure Arkansas

Secure Arkansas is a grassroots organization circulating petitions across our state in an effort to deny illegal aliens in the state from receiving certain public benefits. This is not a "racist" effort, as some have claimed, but an effort "committed to the rule of law and the fair treatment of both citizens and legal immigrants. We believe the State of Arkansas is beholden to protect its citizens and their tax dollars. Since the Federal Government has not acted to secure our borders from illegal immigrants, who unfairly benefit from the privileges of citizenship, it becomes necessary for Arkansas citizens to defend their rights and privileges by championing the laws that our State Government will not. Therefore, Secure Arkansas calls on our fellow citizens to hold our State Government to account on the issue of illegal immigration and exercise the purest form of democracy, by supporting our ballot initiative and voting it into law. This initiative will protect Arkansas citizens, businesses, and aid law enforcement in protecting our communities." (from Secure Arkansas )
