Tucson Police Chief Roberto Villaseñor will meet with President  
Barack Obama at the White House today to discuss the nation's  
immigration laws.
Villaseñor is among a bipartisan group meeting with Obama that  
includes California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, the mayors of New  
York and San Antonio and Philadelphia's police commissioner.
Villaseñor was not available for comment Tuesday morning and his  
office said he would not be available for a phone interview after the  
meeting.
Villaseñor, who has been critical of SB 1070, said last summer that  
all his officers would get the message on how to properly enforce the  
law, but that "without a doubt, we are going to be accused of racial  
profiling, no matter what we do on this. The best thing we can do is  
document thoroughly where we develop our reasonable suspicion or  
probable cause."
In a statement issued late Monday, the White House said the president  
is holding the meeting to discuss the importance of fixing the  
nation's "broken immigration system" to meet the country's 21st  
century economic and national security needs.
The White House said business and religious leaders, as well as  
current and former public officials from across the political  
spectrum were to be invited. The statement was attributed to a White  
House senior official who was not further identified.
