Is this new? Nope, in Colorado its been SOP for decades. The scoff laws don't want immigration reform.It may force them to see that there are laws that are not being followed. I'm not against immigrants, I am against illegal ones. And they are law breakers plain and simple. Do I benefit from them, don't think so. Do you?
I'm against illegal immigration too, but we all indeed do benefit from them. They'll work for less pay, and harder, than typical American workers, so they keep costs down.
