Arizona's SB 1070 is the nation's toughest bill on illegal immigration. Its aim is to identify, prosecute and deport illegal immigrants by making attrition through enforcement the public policy of all state and local government agencies. Laws against illegal immigration seem reasonable, but the stance of SB1070 ignores human concerns that are harder to rationalize. The provisions of the regulation are proposed to work together to disappoint and deter “the unlawful application and occurrence of illicit aliens and financial undertaking by illicit aliens in the joined States.”
