Is Immigration Talk Only About Voters
What’s the story with immigration reform? It seems to me that immigration reform becomes an issue during election year, and then all we hear is local politicians speaking about a need for change during non election years. Why is it this way. Firstly most are considering Hispanics to be a swing voting group. Not swing is in, they may vote for Romney, but swing as in they may or may not vote at all. While immigration reform is something that needs to be discussed by the federal government, it only seems to be a topic of discussion during an election year. Illegal immigration can drain a state bank account, because if you are not paying taxes you aren’t paying into the government, and you aren’t paying for the facilities that you are using. While immigration reform is usually seen as a race issue, in reality it’s all about money, just like elections.
