HALLELUJAH!!! AND GOD BLESS SHERIFF ARPAIO FOR ENFORCING THE LAW !!
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,329829,00.html Friday , February 08, 2008 By William LaJeunesse AGIA PRIETA, Mexico — For the first time, Mexican officials in Arizona admit there is hard evidence illegal immigrants are preparing to leave the state because a new employer sanctions law is making it difficult, if not impossible, for them to keep a job. Illegal immigrants are flooding the Mexican consulate in Phoenix for documents that will allow them to return to Mexico to enroll their children in school, the consul to Arizona, Carlos Flores Vizcarra, told FOX News. They are also requesting a document called "menaje de casa," which allows illegal immigrant families living in the U.S. to cross into Mexico without paying a tax on their furniture and personal belongings. Vizcarra said 94 families asked the embassy for students transfer documents last month, compared to only three last year. He said several thousand immigrants asked for the tax document. In a separate interview, Edmundo Hidalgo of the non-profit immigrant support group Chicanos Por La Causa, said 30,000 illegal immigrants said in a survey last week that they planned to leave Arizona sometime before March 1, when the state’s tough new employer sanctions law goes into effect. Under the law, employers can lose their business licenses if they hire undocumented workers. Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio has set up a hotline for citizens to report on employers who hire illegals. He has said enforcement will begin when the law goes into effect. Many deputies have also been given arrest authority by Customs and Border Protection to enforce federal immigration law. So in the course of a traffic stop, illegal immigrants without a driver's license could ultimately face deportation. These factors, combined with a slowing economy, are forcing many undocumented workers to consider leaving Arizona. According to a study last year, 12 percent of Arizona’s workforce is in the U.S. illegally, the highest percentage in the nation. At a immigrant shelter in Agua Prieta, Mexico, just south of the Arizona border, officials say illegal immigrants are leaving the Grand Canyon state because of the employer sanctions law. In the last month, for every five immigrants trying to enter the U.S., four were crossing back in the other direction, said Rosa Soto Moreno, who runs a Catholic shelter that provides food and lodging for illegal immigrants. Soto said illegal immigrants crossing back into Mexico is a new phenomenon, and she attributes it to the new law. "Many of the supervisors are upset by the law, but have told their workers they have no choice," she said. This message has been edited. Last edited by: SgtSchaeffersMom, |

When I say "knock it off" I mean "knock it off". |
Now if every other state would get this tough things would start to improve. Let's see all the doom and gloom prophesies that occur when they all go back to Mexico????

I suppose that's a good start. Not being discriminant, but illegal is illegal no matter what country they're from. Only time will tell how effective Arizona's law is. If same type of law(s) became effective here in southern California, I can picture total uprising and representatives like Loretta Sanchez fighting on their behalf.

I hear ya. But seriously, who's gonna wash and dry my car at the wash? High school kids? The guy at the street corner holding the "Will work for food, God bless you" sign? I'm just saying that illegal or not, these guys at jobs like this work their azzes off. I don't want my $18 wash to become $25. Plus, last time I checked the unemployment rate was about 5% here. Will that 5% take up jobs like washing cars and dishes? |

Well it would give the younger group a bigger pool of jobs to choose from. And they would be governed by employment laws. And we could make those individuals collecting welfare go out and work. There are issues with collecting assistance and working but nothing that couldn't be resolved. And maybe your $18 wash would go down to $15....

No problem, I say that between Berkeley, San Francisco, and Loretta sweetie, that we just annex the entire state back to Mexico. . . who needs 'em? Let Mexico feed, clothe, house and educate the entire state. As far as I'm concerned, they deserve each other. |

They said that self deportation would not work. Same people said that the Surge would not work. Over and over again, wrong wrong wrong.
And they want us to take them serious when they say that they are smarter than the masses. Know Your Enemy. Do not react to him. Make him react to you. |

I'm right here. and it is no news to me to see Mexicans heading out. i have been mentioning it for the last 3 months... it is a short trip for them... but... what about our chinese illegals? our Nigerians? our Argentinians? do you suppose thyey are going to leave as easily? Mexico accounts for an estimated 60% OF ALL illegals here.. so.. if 7 million leave, that leaves 5 million still here that are NOT self deporting... what do we do THEN? |
