chris.hawley Mexico cautious of Ariz.'s Prop. 200 Sun Oct 3, 2004 23:57 64.140.158.20 Mexico cautious of Ariz.'s Prop. 200 Chris Hawley Republic Mexico City Bureau Oct. 2, 2004 12:00 AM http://www.azcentral.com/news/articles/1002Prop200.html MEXICO CITY - The Mexican Embassy in Washington denied a media report that Mexico will sue Arizona if voters approve Proposition 200, but said Friday it is keeping a close eye on the referendum. Mexico's undersecretary of foreign affairs for North America, Ger'nimo Guti'rrez, likened the measure to California's now-defunct Proposition 187 during a visit to Washington this week. "The foreign ministry remains very attentive to how this measure is developing," he told reporters, according to excerpts from an embassy transcript. "We know that the Mexican community in Arizona, in coordination with different institutions and legal firms, is looking at the possibility of preparing a defense over this issue." On Friday, the international news agency EFE said Guti�rrez had called the measure discriminatory and added that Mexican authorities would prepare a "legal defense" if Arizona voters approved it Nov. 2. The article was quickly picked up on Web sites in Mexico and the United States. The Mexican Embassy's press secretary, Alfonso Nieto, denied the report, but said he lacked a complete transcript of Guti�rrez's comments. Until Guti�rrez's statements Wednesday, Mexican diplomats had been mostly silent on Proposition 200. The measure would require Arizonans to prove their citizenship when registering to vote and when voting in person. It would also require state and local workers to check the immigration documents of all people seeking government benefits. Critics say the requirements would be costly and could discourage illegal immigrants from reporting illnesses, causing a public health risk. In 1994, California voters approved Proposition 187, a measure aimed at limiting social services and public education for illegal immigrants. A federal judge struck down most of its provisions.
