Freep This Poll
Immigration Law Debates ^ | 5/17/2010?

Posted on 05/19/2010 12:37:25 PM PDT by moovova

Illegal immigration continues to be a controversial and divisive matter, not only in the United States, but throughout the world. The illegal immigrant population of the United States in 2008 was estimated by the Center for Immigration Studies to be about 11 million people, with 560 000 of them residing in Arizona. Arizona Senate Bill 1070 (or simply SB 1070) signed by the governor of Arizona Jan Brewer on April 23, 2010 makes it a crime to violate some federal immigration statutes and authorizes local police to determine whether people are in the country legally. The act is scheduled to go into effect on July 28, 2010, ninety days after the end of the legislative session.

I truly wonder what the answer to this poll would be if only - repeat only - legal immigrants to this country were asked??

Who’s dumb enough to waste the fingernail wear to vote “I’m too stupid to have an opinion”?

The Texas-based Perryman Group calculated that if all unauthorized immigrants were removed from Arizona, the state would lose $26.4 billion in economic activity, $11.7 billion in gross state product, and approximately 140,324 jobs.

Wonder why they don't quote the cost to taxpayers and the private sector (eg, hospitals) for maintaining more than 500K illegals. /sarc

It’s a funky page with lots to load in I think. I got the same error...thought it was just my computer.

Have to refresh page, and then click on “results” to see the voting results.

The site would not let me vote and then I could not get off of it. Had to turn the computer off.
