wrong approach..... how about Prop 187?
http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_14968509?nclick_check=1SACRAMENTO, Calif.—Meg Whitman, the Republican front-runner in the California gubernatorial primary, said Tuesday that Arizona is taking the wrong approach to illegal immigration with its tough new law.
The former eBay chief executive said there are more effective approaches than requiring law enforcement officers to question people about their status if they suspect they are in the country illegally.
"I think there's just better ways to solve this problem," Whitman said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "I'm a big believer in, 'What are the two or three things that will make the biggest difference here?'"
She wants the state and federal governments to spend more money on border security and favors sanctions against employers who hire illegal workers. Employers would face increasing fines and suspensions, leading to the permanent suspension of their California business license after a third violation.
