Dear Scribner Mayor Ken Thomas,
This ordinance invites harassment, racial profiling and discrimination in your town against anyone who speaks with an accent or looks "foreign." Further, it prevents people from finding employment or housing. This is no way to grow a small town, which was a campaign promise you made when elected mayor.
Rather than waste taxpayer money and municipal resources on these misguided laws, you can better address concerns about immigration by supporting more rational policies instead of restrictive statutes that violate both the law and American values of fairness.
I urge you to veto this discriminatory ordinance.
Sincerely,
