Controversy over Senate Bill : SB 1070
Jul 28th
Arizona’s SB 1070 is set to go into effect this Thursday, July 29, and it brings a variety of reactions from Latin America leaders.
An Arizona Republic poll found 62 percent support allowing illegal immigrants who are living here now to remain in the country if they have a job and no criminal record.
Seventy-three percent of those polled favor a program to identify and put to work foreign workers when needed. This is the guest-worker component of comprehensive reform. It reflects the reality that our nation needs migrant workers.
The same poll found 55 percent of Arizonans support SB 1070.
Support for SB 1070 reflects bone-deep frustration with a broken system that brought death to our deserts and drop houses to our neighborhoods. More >
