The Seattle City Council voted Monday to boycott Arizona as much as possible because of a new, stricter immigration law there.
Arizona legislators voted in April to give police power to detain anyone suspected of being in the country illegally and makes the failure to carry immigration documents a crime.
Seattle joins several other cities in
passing a boycott of the state in response to the strict immigration law. Boston; New York City; Los Angeles; Oakland, Calif.; West Hollywood, Calif.; and San Diego have passed similar resolutions condemning the law and promising to spend less money in the state. San Francisco; St. Paul, Minn.; and Denver's school systems have banned employee travel to Arizona using public funds. - azcentral.com
