Foes of AZ affirmative action ban filing challenge

PHOENIX — Opponents of Arizona’s Proposition 104 are going to court to keep the measure aimed at dismantling preferential treatment programs for women and minorities off the November general election ballot.
A group called Protect Arizona’s Freedom says it is filing a lawsuit challenging the validity of more than 100,000 signatures submitted by supporters to quality the initiative for the ballot.
The opponents say their challenge is based on “fraudulent and illegal signature-gathering tactics” and does not include signatures expected to be invalidated based on voter registration.
Proposition 104 would amend the Arizona Constitution to ban any hiring practices, university scholarships and other public programs that favor one group over others.
