When it comes to immigration enforcement, it is very concerning to me that the State would consider putting landlords and employers on the front lines of enforcement. I worry that holding them liable may tend to encourage decisions made on the basis of appearance or language instead of documentation.
On a side note, it is interesting that about 10% of your respondents seem to be OK with illegal immigrants living here (renting an apartment) as long as they don't work.
Your comments reflect some of the issues discussed in a previous post from January 24th:
