Norco, Calif. Passes Resolution Supporting Arizona
Norco City Council Members voted, 4-0, to support a resolution that backs Arizona's immigration enforcement law. Norco Mayor Malcolm Miller did not attend the meeting. The Council also discussed a possible E-Verify ordinance that would require all the city's businesses to check new hires through the worker verification system.
Norco becomes the 13th California municipality to officially show its support for Arizona.
Approximately 50 people, including several NumbersUSA members, held a rally outside the building before the meeting to show their support for the city resolution. Fifteen residents spoke during the meeting with all but two supporting the Arizona resolution.
The E-Verify ordinance was widely supported by those at the meeting, and a future meeting will determine the how the city progresses.
