At a Chicago City Hall news conference, immigrant rights activists and faith leaders applauded the decision of a federal judge (July 28), putting key provisions of Arizona SB1070 on hold. Vowing to continue the fight for comprehensive immigration reform, they spoke in support of a proposal to discontinue official city travel to Arizona or business with companies located in the state.
Cheryl Gutmann, M.D., a member of the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs board of directors, was among the speakers.

Thank you, Dr. Cheryl Gutmann. Let us all remember that "We were strangers, too".

Mrs. Gutmann,we will fight right alongside of you until our wishes come true. This country is not the place it used to be anymore. It's becoming a place full of hatred.
