ARIZONA SANCTIONS LAW ACTUALLY CREATING MORE LAWLESSNESS
The Arizona Republic has an in depth article that explores what has happened in the state since its tough new employer sanctions law went in to force at the beginning of the year. The thrust of the article is that the law is having the intended effect of making it a lot tougher for unlawfully present workers to find jobs. But it also has led to a big increase in workers seeking jobs in the underground cash-only economy. That's apparently having a seriously negative impact on the Arizona economy as tax receipts from these workers disappear. The state has a $1.2 billion deficit, one of the worst in the country.
