The beauty of federalism is evident in Arizona. Arizona’s new employer sanction law, which went into effect on January 1st, virtually requires that all employees in Arizona are citizens or have the appropriate paperwork from the Federal government.
As a result, illegal Mexican immigrants are doing one of two things, moving to other states or returning home. Since our Federal government has not lived up to its obligations, states are taking matters into their own hands.
And as a result of Arizona’s actions, other states will see an influx of illegal immigrants and more than likely, they will also adopt laws similar to those of Arizona. Oklahoma already has. Those states who don’t, will be stuck will all the ills that illegal immigrants bring with them.
The other thing that strikes me is something the amnesty crowd said would never happen. Remember what they said? That it was a pipe dream, an impossibility that that even a small percentage of illegal aliens could be deported. Instead, wholesale amnesty was the only solution.
Instead, we find, as exemplified by Arizona, that without employment, illegals aren’t interested in our way of life. They aren’t interested in life, liberty or property. The concepts of a republic don’t matter to them. Just money. When they can’t earn a living, they return home.
The amnesty hucksters were wrong. We can repatriate the mass of illegals in this country through attrition.
The full effect of the law, which calls for punishing Arizona employers who knowingly employ illegal immigrants but hasn’t been used yet, is troublesome and unknown for Mexican lawmakers along the border.
“We have yet to feel the full impact, but the moment (immigrants) leave Arizona, we’re going to have problems,” said Enrique Flores Lopez, director of the state migrant advocacy department in the state of Sonora.
A delegation of politicians from Sonora plans to travel to Mexico City next week to seek help to house and feed workers who may flee Arizona.“We’re going to demand resources,” said Irma Villalobos, a state legislator who heads the commission of border affairs in Sonora.
Nogales legislator Leticia Amparano, who met with Arizona lawmakers to learn more about the new law and its enforcement, said Mexican lawmakers have collected anecdotes about crowded classrooms and more people roaming the streets of downtown Nogales, Mexico, in search of assistance. Read more…
Maybe it is time for the American people to make an end run around the President, the Congress, and the Department of Homeland Security. Maybe this problem needs to be tackled at the state level and if 20 or 25 states adopt this an Arizona type of legislation, thus removing the economic incentive that attracts illegal immigrants in the first place. And for those states too liberal to adopt such measures, how long before the influx of displaced illegal immigrants into their states forces them to adopt employer sanction laws? Just a thought.

I’ll have to dig up the 411 on this, but Mexico sent up a team to brow beat some of the MEXICANS on the legislature telling them that Mexico could NOT handle all of the people coming home. They said they don’t have the money to take care of them, and now Arizona is looking into loosening its laws to accomodate MEXICO. And here I am thinking that only Congress was able to have treaties with FOREIGN countries…how stupid of me.
Otherwise, great article.

Indeed. There are already federal laws on the books that would be sufficient to achieve the same effect that Arizona and Oklahoma are striving for (and achieving). The problem lies in the lack of will (or even desire) to enforce them. Sadly, NONE of the opresidential candidates’ records give ANY hope for a push for enforcement of federal laws already on the books any time soon.

In case you are thinking about voting for John McCain, think again. Remember Dr. Juan Hernandez, who was a regular on news shows pushing for Amnesty, open borders and equal rights for Mexicans inside the United States??? He’s John McCain’s
