Alabama’s Immigration Reform Cuts Unemployment. AGAIN!

[Mad Scientist]

For those of you think that enforcing this country's immigration laws won't work. From The Daily Caller:

Alabama’s unemployment rate continues to drop amid state-wide enforcement of a new immigration law, despite Democratic efforts to block and stigmatize the popular reform. December’s unemployment rate fell to 8.1 percent, down from 8.7 percent in November and 9.8 percent in September.
“In the last three months alone, we’ve seen an unprecedented drop of 1.7 percentage points,” noted Alabama Republican Gov. Robert Bentley in a Jan. 20 statement.

This can happen nation wide if we get over being Politically Correct and just enforce this nations existing laws.

Alabama’s unemployment rate continues to drop amid state-wide enforcement of a new immigration law…

There’s no evidence one has anything to do with the other.

The state has also added 35,400 new jobs since January 2011.

That’s the likely reason why.

Still, many counties have very high unemployment rates. For example, the formal unemployment rate in majority-black Wilcox County is 16.3%. It is 13.7 percent in Bullock County, and 13.5 percent in Perry County and Lowndes County.

The immigration law isn’t enforced in these counties?

An unsubstantiated claim of a decrease in unemployment due to a new anti-immigration law isn’t justification for an illegal measure.

I'm glad you posted this.

It's proof positive of everything that many of both the left and the right have been saying about immigration for the last decade or so.

Are you fucking dumb?

If employers are forbidden from hiring illegal labor, they will be forced to hire LEGAL labor.

Illegals will work for far less in the US because what they make here is worth 10x more in Mexico. So employers - usually in the manufacturing industry - prefer the illegal aliens because they will work for next to nothing.

Obviously if you forbid them from hiring illegals they will have no choice but to give a LEGAL resident of this country the job....

Every illegal that is working in this country STEALS a job opportunity from a LEGAL US resident.

What americans have to do is get rid of all the pro-illegal orgs that keep this country unemployed by protecting and fighting for the law breakers who come into the USA ILLEGALLY!!!

unemployment has dropped everywhere

Not exactly.....we just aren't counting those folks that have exhausted unemployment benefits so they have literally become financially nonexistent and thus are not in the new figures
