U.S. EMPLOYERS PUSH BACK AGAINST IMMIGRATION SANCTIONS
July 25, 2008 by Bradley Maged.
According to an article on reuters.com: “Immigration has turned many business into activists across the country and it has stirred strong passions in the United States in this election year.”
Given aggressive Federal enforcement and a hodgepodge of new state laws, employers are feeling the crunch and are trying to lobby for changes to the laws, both at the state level and nationally.
Hopefully Congress and the new President will have the courage to enact comprehensive immigration reform in 2009 so that the country can be on the same page regarding this issue. It is a shame for states and municipalities to have to pass laws or ordinances that are either pro or anti-immigrant because the federal governement has failed to act.

IMMIGRATION STATISTICS ARE A HOAX
July 25, 2008 by Bradley Maged.
According to an entry on latimesblogs.latimes.com: “We have received some responses to our post this morning about illegal immigration numbers that quote different figures — figures that allegedly come from the Los Angeles Times. . .Those figures are a hoax, which you can read about here on Snopes.com.”
Statistics are often deceiving and as we see day in and day out, can be used to manipulate information to suit one’s purposes. Moreover, “studies”, especially when conducted by an interested party or organization should be taken with a cup of salt.
