Arizona Lawmaker Proposes Holiday for White People

Cecil Ash, Arizona lawmaker (R), has people scratching their heads after he proposed a holiday for white people. This comes just after a Latino state legislator, Richard Miranda, suggested a Latino American Day.

Following Miranda's proposal Ash came forward, saying "I'm supportive of this proposition and I think it's well deserved. I just want them to assure me that when we do become in the minority you'll have a day for us."

After laughter and gasps subsided, Ash continued to support his idea, saying "I think it was appropriate. It was appropriate for the mood that was in the House and I think that if and when the Caucasian population becomes a minority, they may want to celebrate the accomplishments and the contributions of the Caucasian population the same way."

Over the past few years Arizona has came under fire for their contentious immigration enforcement bill signed by Gov. Jan Brewer in 2010. Brewer also made headlines earlier last month for dismissively wagging her finger in President Obama's face at an airport.
