Governor Brewer Condemns U.S. State Department Report to UN Human Rights Council | Jan Brewer
PHOENIX In correspondence sent today to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Governor Jan Brewer has condemned the Universal Periodic Review report submitted to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. Governor Brewer has requested that Secretary Clinton amend the report to the United Nations to remove the paragraph on S.B. 1070.
In her letter to Secretary of State Clinton, Governor Brewer stated Simply put, it is downright offensive that the State Department included the State of Arizona and S.B. 1070 in a report to the United Nations Council on Human Rights, whose members include such renowned human rights champions as Cuba and Libya. Governor Brewer additionally stated, The idea of our own American government submitting the duly enacted laws of a State of the United States to review by the United Nations is internationalism run amok and unconstitutional. Human rights as guaranteed by the United States and Arizona Constitutions are expressly protected in S.B. 1070 and defended vigorously by my Administration.
