To: Doug Ducey, Governor of Arizona
Gov. Ducey: Do not sign SB 1142 -- seizing protesters' assets
Arizona Senate Bill 1142 will allow law enforcement to seize the assets of anyone who PLANS or PARTICIPATES in a protest that disturbs the public peace or results in ANY property damage. Sign this petition telling Arizona Governor Doug Ducey to safeguard our first amendment right to protest; tell him to NOT sign SB1142.
Why is this important?
Arizona SB 1142 will allow law enforcement to seize the assets of anyone who plans or participates in a protest that disturbs the public peace or results in any property damage. The intent of the bill is to deny citizens of their freedom of speech and stop all protests in Arizona. We must stop this bill before it is signed. Otherwise, other states already lined up with prepared legislation will enact more laws prohibiting this fundamental American right.
