What is today's political pulse on immigration?

On the next Your Call, we'll talk about the ripple effects of Arizona's new immigration law, SB1070, on nationwide politics. It's set to go into effect Thursday, though controversial portions have been put on temporary hold. While immigrants themselves are trying to figure out what the new laws will mean for them, so are politicians. Is this a partisan issue? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. How will Obama's opposition to SB1070 impact its implementation? Are other border states, like California, rejecting Arizona's direction or moving toward it? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Aarti Kholi, director of immigration policy at the Warren Institute at the UC Berkeley School of Law

Alessandra Soler Meetze, executive director of the ACLU of Arizona
