The Mess Congress Made: Immigration inaction is fueling Irving panic – Texas
Tagged: children, deportation, parents, TexasPosted on: October 9th, 2007“Many North Texans are reacting to Irving’s crackdown on illegal immigrants by saying: Darn right, they’re breaking the law, and it’s about time we sent them packing. Folks on the opposite side counter: This is a harsh overreaction against people who are working, contributing to the economy and paying taxes.
The mood is getting nastier by the day. Fear abounds within the Hispanic community. Latino U.S. citizens, along with legal and illegal immigrants, worry that they could be hunted down and deported. Irving schools have noticed a drop in attendance because some parents, fearing deportation, have gone into hiding with their children.”
