This is a bit like pulling teeth... :mean:
I'll give up - was just trying to understand why, many of these cities in the firing line of illegal immigration, should pass such a law, and my only conclusion is that it's about the labour market. Perhaps vested farming interest protecting their low wages (to illegal immigrants) policy?
I must admit, it seems, at face value, un American, and I still don't get why the average American would think it a good policy, I mean how is it sold to them?
Here, it would mean electoral disaster....except, the hue of many city councils further North is changing, but they wouldn't have the power (right now) to enact such a law. However, there are mutterings of devolved power to so-called "City States" in the future which could provide a platform for this kind of thing but I still don't get what's in it for the electorate....

I agree with Jeff on this one, except, they do become potential voters.
A voters registration card could be had by my dog in some states with high numbers of Mexican immigrants seeking to get on the government dole.
I'm sorry but that's a myth. Only citizens vote (not even green card holders or permanent residents can vote).
