“Worthington city leaders say they were anticipating a sweep for several months so they were not surprised when it happened this week. But they are concerned about the affect it will have on the town, which in the last 10 years has seen an influx of immigrants moving in.
Worthington is a town of just 11,000 people, yet it has 30 minority-owned businesses. The mayor estimates between 25 and 30 percent of the citizens are Latino. “
