The new ground zero in the debate over illegal immigration is Arizona, where the nation’s toughest and potentially most far-reaching crackdown on undocumented workers and their employers takes effect today. The Arizona law, passed resoundingly by the state legislature after Congress failed to enact immigration reform last summer, penalizes companies that knowingly hire illegal immigrants by suspending their business licenses for up to 10 days; on a second offense, the business license would be revoked - what Democratic Gov. Janet Napolitano has called a corporate “death penalty.” Thus the Arizona law may become a test case for how much pain a state is willing to endure, and inflict, in the name of ridding itself of a population that contributes enormously to its economic growth and prosperity.”*
