METRO ATLANTA BUSINESSES HANG POSTERS TO OPPOSE HB87

Some business owners around the Atlanta metro area already hung, and others said they plan to hang posters in their windows to let immigrants know they are a safe haven for undocumented immigrants.
Elizabeth Anderson who works at Charis Books and More in Little Five Points said the poster is a symbol of their disgust for the new law and if federal deportation officers come to their store, they will tell them to get a search warrant because they want immigrants to feel safe.
The posters are part of numerous organizations that include Somos Georgia, 'We Are Georgia,' Southerners On New Ground, and Georgia Latino Alliance For Human Rights that oppose HB87. More on this to come I am sure.
