Russell Pearce (born June 23, 1947) is a American and Arizona State Senator representing Legislative District 18 (which covers most of western and central Mesa and small portions of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community) in the Arizona Senate. As a Republican he previously served in the Arizona House of Representatives. Pearce is most widely known for sponsoring legislation seeking to prevent illegal immigration and argues that it represents high costs to the state and that big business and ethnic interests support its continual growth. Pearce favors a strong border security policy and is outspoken in his opposition to legalization for illegal immigrants. This has occasionally brought him in conflict with business interests, including some of his Republican peers.

Pearce has fought for restricting illegal immigration into the United States. He drafted Proposition 200, popularly known as Protect Arizona Now, to stop voting fraud and welfare fraud by illegal aliens.
In a recent story on NPR, he was quoted as saying, "I believe in the rule of law … I've always believed in the rule of law. We're a nation of laws."; and "I will not back off until we solve the problem of this illegal invasion. Invaders, that's what they are. Invaders on the American sovereignty and it can't be tolerated."

Pearce was a sponsor of Arizona SB1070, which passed into law in April 2010. The measure attracted national attention as the broadest and strictest anti-illegal immigration measure in decades within the United States.
He has also sponsored Arizona SB1097, currently being debated in the legislature, which seeks to quantify the impact of illegal immigration on the state's K-12 education system. The text of the bill states that:
School districts would be required to identify and count all students who are in the U.S. illegally.
The state's Department of Education would be required to report annually on the impact and costs to state taxpayers of the enrollment of these students.
The state Superintendent of Public Instruction would be authorized to withhold state aid from districts that do not comply with the law.

In October 2006, Russell Pearce forwarded an email from National Alliance, a white separatist group, to a group of supporters. The email titled "Who Rules America" criticized black and white intermixing and Jews in the media for promoting multiculturalism and racial equality, for depicting "any racially conscious White Person" as a bigot, and for presenting the Holocaust as fact. He quickly apologized.

In April 2008, Pearce sponsored a measure, Senate Bill 1108, that would prohibit students of Arizona universities and community colleges from forming groups based in whole or part on the race of their membership. Pearce said he didn't want students indoctrinated with seditious or anti-American teachings. The bill would ban groups that serve minority interests such as the Mexican American study program and the Black Business Students Association.

Russell Pearce lives in Mesa, Arizona with his wife, LuAnne. He has five children. In 1980, LuAnne filed a petition for dissolution of marriage alleging that he: "is possessed of a violent temper, and has from time to time hit and shoved the wife, the last time being on February 3 [1980], when he grabbed the wife by the throat and threw her down." . However, LuAnne reconciled with her husband and they remain married to this day.
