HP reports: OKLAHOMA CITY — The U.S. Conference of Mayors has approved resolutions condemning Arizona's new immigration law and asking Congress for an overhaul of federal immigration policies. Conference spokeswoman Elena Temple-Webb says both resolutions were approved on a voice vote, with some opposition.
Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon sponsored the first resolution opposing the Arizona law that makes crossing the border illegally a state crime and requires police to verify people's immigration status. The law goes into effect July 29. A second resolution by Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa calls for the repeal of the Arizona law and for Congress to pass comprehensive changes to immigration law. An estimated 200 mayors attended the conference Monday in Oklahoma City.

Correction about the Mayor of Trenton New Jersey
Black Mayor Douglas Palmer of Trenton in New Jersey - he seems to me like a rising Black Star !
Palmer is a member of the Mayors Against Illegal Guns Coalition, a bipartisan group with a stated goal of "making the public safer by getting illegal guns off the streets." The Coalition is co-chaired by Boston Mayor Thomas Menino and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Mayor Palmer was named President of the National Conference of Democratic Mayors in. June 2003. Mayor Palmer also is President of the New Jersey Urban Mayors.
Mayor Palmer is a leader of Anti SB1070 !
Mayor Phil Gordon of Phoenix
Gordon said. He said big-city mayors like Michael Bloomberg in New York and Richard M. Daley in Chicago were supportive of his resolution.
