For advocating anti-Latino and anti-immigrant laws in Arizona. The Latino superpower of the United States assembled and successfully went through the recall election to eliminate Russell Pearce from office.

Russell Pearce was the author of the unconstitutional racist law: SB1070.

His legislation created a fearful environment in Arizona where thousands of families were living day after day in fear. Arizona lost a lot of money in lawsuits following the signing of the law by Jan Brewer. Loss in business; not many people both in the US and around the world want to visit Arizona to spend their money after this shameful law. Many boycotts on Arizona products also affected their economy.

The Fiesta Bowl scandal also played a role in his recall.
