Does anyone have the bill no. ? Looks like Arnie and I need to have a little talk.

If it the one I'm thinking about its SB1

Part of the bill posted on the webpage below reads:

Purpose of this bill:
According to the author, there are
currently 2.7 million immigrants in California that are eligible
to naturalize and several million more that will soon be
eligible. The author notes that there are at least 85 cities
in California where non-citizen adults comprise more than 25% of
the city's total voting age population and 30 cities where
non-citizen adults make up more than 40% of the voting-age
population. The author asserts that "citizenship and civic
participation among all California residents is vital to the
economic and societal well being of the state" and that "given
these statistics, California's governance structure lacks an
office responsible for helping California's immigrant
population integrate into society, develop a sense of belonging,
and seize opportunities for success in order to ensure equal
opportunity for a high quality of life." The author argues that
creation of the Office envisioned by this bill "is in the best
interest of the State of California and its citizens."

The author notes that other states have formed entities similar
to the one proposed by this bill: Illinois has created the New
Americans Immigrant Policy Council, Utah has an Office of Ethnic
Affairs, and Kansas has established a Hispanic and Latino
Affairs Commission.

Support: The California Immigrant Policy Center supports this
bill arguing that "as home to the largest immigrant population
in the country, it is critical for California to show leadership
in implementing model policies for integrating newcomers into
our state. California, like the United States, depends upon
immigrants to drive economic growth. Access to citizenship
services, support programs, and civic participation
opportunities are key components of success fully integrating
immigrant families into our state's social, political, and civic
fabric. All Californians benefit when our diverse communities
are healthy and strong."

California, like the United States, depends upon (illegal) immigrants to drive economic growth? So how did California ever survive before this invasion? In my fuzzy memory I think we always had a vibrant economy without them. It's only now we are sinking into a third world slum.
