“Lawmakers in Arizona have sent the harshest anti-immigrant measure in the nation to their governor. … The frustration that fueled California's ugly and unconstitutional Proposition 187—an attempt to deny social services, healthcare and education to illegal immigrants—has taken hold in Arizona, where Latinos now make up only about 15% of registered voters but account for almost half of all births and half of the K-12 population. … It's hard to fault state lawmakers for trying to solve those problems while leaders in Washington avoid them.”
