Thank goodness. This is way overdue. Now maybe more states will pass the same. Florida desperately needs to do so.

ALL RIGHT ONE MORE VICTORY FOR US.WAY TO GO!!!!!!!

Justices Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor, all Democratic appointees, dissented.

What was La Raza's position on Arizona's law? Same as Sotomayor?

Not surprised, but truly amazed. Three justices think unlawful businesses should be able to do business in our states. This is very sad.

A great victory for AZ. It was narrowly won. Now we need federal legislation, making it a national law. Force EVERY employer to use it.
Federal E-verify will be better than a border fence.

This is great but we need to be doing 2 things as we push for it in the other states.

1. Include all workers. We need to make sure all workers including existing ones submits to e verify so we weed out the illegals in w 2 jobs.

CO has a similar law but it only made it from 1 January 07 forward so if you had a job prior to that; you didnt have to prove right to work.

2. Include independent contract workers which are exempt under the I 9 from the prove you right to work.

We also need to ensure in this work; that its 1 ssn per person and that people are not working under someone elses ssn including a childs.
