America’s immigrants make it strong

The United States is locked in debate over immigration. The state of Arizona recently enacted legislation that encourages local police to check the immigration status of people who were stopped for other reasons – and requires immigrants to produce proof of their legal status on demand.
The Obama administration has criticised the law, church groups have protested that it is discriminatory, and a federal court has issued a temporary injunction, ruling immigration is a federal issue. Regardless of the outcome of the legal case, the Arizona law has proven to be popular in other states.
