Ever since April 23, when Governor Jan Brewer signed a new bill that aims to identify, prosecute and deport illegal immigrants, the state has found itself the target of stark criticism and numerous boycott threats. Here’s what it will cost.
…of every dollar coming from outside of AZ will go away.
The state’s leading export category is computers and electronic products http://www.trade.gov/td/industry/otea/state_reports/arizona.html
I really doubt that Mexico will find another US state to supply them with electronics and transportation equipment quick enough to actually make any impact in their total exports. More than that, I don’t think that MLB has time to move the All-Star game since it takes over a year to set these things up.
Outside of CO, I think most State governments would prefer to only support their LEGAL, non-law breaking, citizens that pay taxes (or at least their employers pay taxes even if their income is too low to owe any on their own) California accounts for most of the tourism to AZ where MANY people have second homes. I don’t think even 1 person would avoid going to a state where they own a home just because of an immigration law that makes it ILLEGAL to BREAK THE LAW. They have some great Golf Courses out there as well….
