Ted, I think it was Lou Dobb who said cut off their benefits and they will go back. Either Frist or Larry King said that we can't do that.......it would be an unfair thing to do.

Remember Proposition 187?


It died for a whole host of reasons but particularly because the courts ruled that immigration is a federal issue. However, that was known going into it........the intent was to get the federal gov't to act which it did. Why do you think employment at the SD INS office was beefed up? Its the same reason why GA passed their law. It can't be enforced on the state level but it forces the federal gov't to act.

"Its constitutionality was immediately challenged by several lawsuits. On November 11, 1994, federal judge Matthew Byrne issued a temporary restraining order against it, on grounds that it exceeded state authority in the federal realm of immigration. The case worked its way through the courts. The multiple cases were consolidated and brought before judge Mariana Pfaelzer. In 1998, newly elected Governor Gray Davis (who had opposed the proposition) had the case brought before mediation. Following this, he dropped the appeals process before the courts, effectively killing the law."
