Illegal immigrants are leaving Arizona
Reports are surfacing in Arizona that some undocumented immigrants are leaving the state in reaction to a tough new law that empowers law enforcement to arrest those in the country illegally, reports the Arizona Republic.
Parents of school-age children are debating whether to clear out of Arizona, although it’s unclear how many, according to the paper. The potential loss of students in some schools has started a discussion about how an exodus of kids — which trigger state and federal money — might affect the schools.
One mother of school-aged children told the reporter that her family is thinking of moving to New Mexico.
She and her husband are both undocumented. The woman told the reporter that her husband just quit a roofing job he had held for five years and the family is thinking of moving.
The reporter goes on, quoting the woman:
Suriano’s husband has been in New Mexico for two weeks, looking for an apartment and a job. She is packing up their Phoenix apartment. “He tells me over in New Mexico, it is like here when we first came: There is no fear and they treat you like human beings.” http://newmexicoindependent.com/5567...eaving-arizona
