One sponsor of the new illegal immigration law Senator Scott Beason of Gardendale says he does not want to change the law.

Beason met with some fifty angry tomato farmers in a tomato packing shed on Chandler Mountain. They continue to claim that the new immigration law has run off all the Hispanic workers and now they don't have anyone to pick the crop. One farmer says he has as much as two hundred thousand dollars worth of tomatoes rotting in his fields. All this while attorneys for the state ask a federal judge not to put the law on hold during an appeal.
