SB 1070 Chases 100,000 Hispanics Out of Arizona
Amazing what happens when you enforce the law : A new study suggests there may be 100,000 fewer Hispanics in Arizona than there were before the debate over the state’s tough new immigration law earlier this year. BBVA Bancomer Research, which did the study, worked with figures from the U.S. Current Population Survey. The study says the decline could be due to the law known as SB1070, which partly entered into effect in July, or to Arizona’s difficult economic situation. The study released Wednesday also cites Mexican government figures as saying that 23,380 Mexicans returned from Arizona to Mexico between June and September. Imagine what could happen to our illegal immigration problem if the entire country decided to take the Arizona approach.
