INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Republican leaders in the Indiana Senate are asking the city of Bloomington to think twice about it's decision to boycott Arizona businesses because of that state's new immigration law.
A letter dated Thursday from GOP Sen. Mike Delph of Carmel and signed by more than 20 other Republicans asks Bloomington officials to "take a step back" from their plan to avoid business with Arizona companies.
Bloomington mayor Mark Kruzan says the letter is a political ploy for votes in an election year and won't change his mind.
Arizona's new immigration law requires police, while enforcing other laws, to question a person's immigration status if officers have a reasonable suspicion that the person is in the country illegally.
