Yesterday, after my post on the new Arizona study, I received an e-mail from Brad Peck, Senior Director, Communications Publishing for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce with these links.  Thank you, Brad.�

“A recent study paid for by one of the defendant’s in a federal court case challenging that Arizona’s immigration statute alleges that “Illegal’s depress wages by $1.4 billion in Arizona.” That study, however, did not consider, review or analyze the economic benefits of immigrants, such as the money they spend on goods and services in Arizona, as well as the amount of taxes they pay to the state and local governments.

There is a more comprehensive study (PDF) on the overall economic benefits that immigrants (legal and illegal) bring to Arizona”*
