Arizona Preps New Immigration Laws

The Arizona legislature is preparing harsh new immigration laws that would outlaw illegal immigrants from driving, attending school, and receiving public benefits. Many of these laws openly flout federal laws; their backers hope that they can draw the Supreme Court into ruling in their favor on these issues. Under the law, schools and hospitals would require IDs; illegal immigrants would be barred from all state licenses, including marriage; and landlords would be required to evict entire families if just one illegal immigrant is found to be living with them.
