Arkansas News: The Arkansas attorney general today certified the name and ballot title of a proposed constitutional amendment that would make it difficult for illegal immigrants to receive public benefits in the state. The proposal also would require government agencies to verify that all those seeking public benefits in the state are U.S. residents. “Boy, I’ve been waiting for this one,” said Jeannie Burlsworth, spokesman for Secure Arkansas, the group pushing the proposal. Secure Arkansas proposed a similar amendment last year but failed to gather the necessary signatures to put it on the November 2008 ballot. The group also was unsuccessful during the 2009 legislative session in getting lawmakers to support such legislation. The attorney general’s OK clears the group to begin canvassing. It has until July 2, 2010, to gather 77,468 signatures of registered voters necessary to qualify the measure for the November 2010 general election ballot.
