This will only cost the state more money and further delay things. Those against the laws are only thinking of their 'bottom line' and not what is best for our society and culture.

Lets create a panel to do a study to gather findings of an issue and make recommendations.......translation throw money away at cackling politicians to learn what we already know.

When our legislature does anything to help illegals stay in Utah, they hurt Utah citizens. Illegals are the modern slave or pseudo slave and the people that hire them are the modern slave or pseudo slave owners....these slave owners are smarter though, they don't pay for the social services their slaves need, the tax payer does. If the psuedo slave owner can use a psuedo slave, he doesn't have to employee a Utah citizen who needs a job with fair wages and benefits.

Finally the Utah Legislature does something wise: decide to study! Immigration needs to be studied very seriously. It is significant to all Utah citizens, because everybody is affected by the powerful incursion of the Latino peoples and their colorful, vibrant culture and strong determination to succeed for family's sake, and not for political advantages---an odd philosophy in today's commercial world.

Let's hope they consider the public relations fiasco which will result from any breaking up of families or outright criminal labeling of our fellow continental Americans from the south.
