>>As a CA resident I hope they wise up here and realize that now they are going to have to enact a similar law out of defense if nothing else...<<
Now is the time to take a shot at Son of 186: Word for word the AZ law.
One reasons what is happening in AZ is not as bad in CA is that we have strengthened the border with Mexico so the new desired entry was moved to Arizona. Now it will shift back to CA and with the state's economy we just can't take any more welfare deadbeats. And we already have more than enough leaf-blower operators for years to come.
Which itself closely mirrors federal law. ...a law the feds never enforce, of course.
