National Interest in Immigration Issues Wanes - Up to the States?
From the Chicago Tribune:
Illegal immigration, a hot-button populist issue that many experts had expected to top the nation's political concerns this year, has largely vanished from the presidential campaign...anti-Immigration activists, chagrined that their issue is sputtering at the national level as American voters turn their attention to the faltering economy, are resigning themselves to the likelihood that the next occupant of the White House, either Democrat or Republican, may well try to resurrect an Immigration compromise. Instead, they are redoubling their efforts to pass laws at the state and local level that aim to identify and isolate illegal immigrants; deny them jobs, apartments or public services; and restrict the use of Spanish or other languages by government agencies or officials.

Exactly, immigration issue would be the main concern of all politicians this coming elections. Are they saying that they would only tackle this problem during their campaigns and election days? After that, whats next? Be true to yourself politician folks, we are so tired in your promises,see, nothing happens. Stop acting as if you are really concern on what is happening in the country with regards to illegal migrations.
