Immigration Reality: Study released in Mexico suggests there are 100,000 fewer Hispanics in Arizona since SB1070

This article reports some interesting statistics about Hispanic migrants, changes in remittances (money sent home) and taxes paid in the U.S. ($53 billion).

Study released in Mexico suggests there are 100,000 fewer Hispanics in Arizona since SB1070-The Canadian Press: "A new study suggests there may be 100,000 fewer Hispanics in Arizona than there were before the debate over the state's tough new immigration law earlier this year.

BBVA Bancomer Research, which did the study, worked with figures from the U.S. Current Population Survey. The study says the decline could be due to the law known as SB1070, which partly entered into effect in July, or to Arizona's difficult economic situation." Nov. 11, 2010
