SAN FRANCISCO — San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom Tuesday imposed a moratorium on city employee travel to the state of Arizona for official business and announced the creation of a task force to determine how best to extricate the city from its Arizona-related contracts.
The actions are in response to a new anti-immigration measure signed into law last week by Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, and come one day after San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera issued a statement calling the law "draconian" and criticized the state for choosing "to isolate itself from the rest of the nation."
