TO: Jorge M. Gonzalez, City Manager
FROM: Matti Herrera Bower, Mayor ~ ~ MIA~
DATE: March 14, 2012
SUBJECT: Discussion Regarding Joining Amicus Brief in Arizona v. United States
Please place on the March 21, 2012 Commission meeting agenda a discussion
regarding the City of Miami Beach joining an amicus brief prepared by Santa Clara
County and supported by the U.S. Conference of Mayors regarding the immigration-

and immigrant integration.

questions, please do not hesitate to contact Rebecca Wakefield at extension 6157.
