A delegation of nine state legislators from Sonora was in Tucson on Tuesday to say Arizona's new employer sanctions law will have a devastating effect on the Mexican state.

At a news conference, the legislators said Sonora - Arizona's southern neighbor, made up of mostly small towns - cannot handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools it will face as illegal Mexican workers here return to their hometowns without jobs or money.

The law, which took effect Jan.1, punishes employers who knowingly hire individuals who don't have valid legal documents to work in the United States. Penalties include suspension or loss of a business license.
Its intent is to eliminate or curtail the top draw for immigrants to this country - jobs.

I bet it's easier to teach your kids responsibility too. They now have the opportunity to flip burgers and empty trash cans again instead of living off mom and dad into their mid 20's.

Here in California, I don't remember the last time I was served by a High School student.... Weird. :confused
 
My son works does odd jobs for our neighbors. He works hard to pay for the Christian summer camp he likes to go to every year. I'm trying to get him to think larger and raise money for him to go to Africa on a missionary trip this year.
