Lou Dobbs Tonight -- December 7
Schiavone (CNN): Arizona is poised to implement one of the toughest
crackdowns on illegal workers in the nation; forcing employers
to make sure workers are legal or lose their licenses. The U.S.
Chamber of Commerce is hopping mad.
Tom Donohue, USCC: That's great. That's really American,
right?
Schiavone: But in the absence of federal immigration reform,
states and localities are taking matters into their own hands,
as of mid-November introducing no fewer than 1,500 pieces of
related legislation across the nation; 244 became law in 46 states;
11 of which have been vetoed. -- Among the front line industries
feeling the shock, construction, the Labor Department reports
that just last month construction lost 24,000 jobs due in no
small part to the current mortgage crisis with residential construction
continuing a job's decline of many months. The nation's homebuilders
employ between eight and nine million workers, but they say the
pressures of changing laws presenting a patchwork of conflicting
state and local regulations is killing them.
