States could follow Arizona on immigration - USATODAY.com

States could follow Arizona on immigration - USATODAY.com: "WASHINGTON — Because Congress was unable to pass any kind of immigration legislation this year and the prospects remain dim when the new Congress is sworn in next month, state legislatures will continue to lead the charge on immigration policy in the new year.

For many states, that could mean a crackdown on illegal immigration that mirrors the Arizona law that passed in April and reignited a national immigration debate.

After Republicans made huge gains in statehouses and governor's mansions in the November election, as many as seven states are 'likely' to pass an Arizona-style law next year, according to a study by the National Immigration Forum, which opposes such legislation."
