More Challenges To Possible Illegal Immigration Law

Two more organizations are seeking their 15 minutes of fame by opposing a possible initative that has not even got enough signatures concerning illegal immigration.
From The Las Vegas Sun: "The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority and the Nevada Resort Association today filed a joint legal challenge to a recently filed initiative petition that would enact reform legislation similar to Arizona’s controversial new immigration law.
The Nevada Immigration Verification Act, which could appear on the 2011 ballot if the initiative is qualified, mirrors Arizona’s controversial immigration reform legislation that was signed into law earlier this year by Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer". http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/jun/21/lvcva-resort-association-challenge-immigration-pro/

This nothing more than money. These two organizations are afraid that 1. they may lose illegal immigrant employees and 2. people may cancel trips to Las Vegas.
These two organizations are basically saying: screw the law, we think money is more important.
Look for the Clark County School District to oppose this possible initiative because they know if this law passes, they will lose students which means the district will lose both federal and state funds. Same with other public employee unions and local and state governments. Illegal immigrants mean big business in Nevada and especially Las Vegas.
But note also, they are going after this bill before the petitioners submit their signatures. They know that if this bill is on the ballot, it will pass overwhelming and this is why they are scared and trying to stop it before it becomes law.
My only question is this: Where can I sign the petition?
