Introduction and summary
A handul o local communiies across our naion enaced unconsiuional, dis-
criminaory, and cosly immigraion conrols in recen years in an eor o chase
away undocumened immigrans and heir amilies and riends, many o whom
are American ciizens. Tis growing backlash agains Hispanic immigrans in par-
icular was driven by ear, economic uncerainy, and culural dierences in hese
localiies: small owns in New Jersey, Nebraska, Pennsylvania and exas, and one
couny in Virginia.
Agains he backdrop o a slowly recovering economy, high unemploymen, alling
sae and local ax revenues due o he Grea Recession, and a hos o problems
ranging rom crime o overcrowded schools, Hispanic immigrans proved o be
handy scapegoas or he whie majoriy o ciizens in hese communiies. Never
mind ha hese immigranslegal and undocumenedare neiher he roo
cause o any o hese problems nor a major acor in any o hem.
Arizona, o course, drew he mos atenion or is law, S.B. 1070, which requires
police o quesion he legal saus o suspecs when here is reasonable suspicion
hey are undocumened immigrans.1 Te law also ses atriion hrough enorce-
men as Arizonas ocial immigraion policy, which in plain English means i he
laws are harsh enough, immigrans will ee in ear. Te saes immigraion conrol
measure has no been enorced, however, because a ederal judge pu a hold on he
new law pending he oucome o a lawsui in which he U.S. Deparmen o Jusice
challenged Arizonas atemps o usurp ederal jurisdicion o immigraion maters.2
Because o he nooriously bad preceden se by S.B. 1070, a boycot o he saes
ourism and convenion indusry delivered a signican hi as oulined in a repor
by he Cener or American Progress. Led by naional organizaions, enerain-men celebriies, and opinion leaders, he economic boycot immediaely led

Oher saes have aken noice o he cosly resuls o Arizonas unconsiuional
immigran enorcemen measures. Naivis legislaors in exas and Florida are con-
sidering Arizona-syle ani-immigran measures during heir 2011 legislaive ses-
sions, bu exas Gov. Rick Perry, a Republican, has vowed o veo such a bill, while
he poliically inuenial Cuban-American communiy in Florida sands opposed
o harsh immigraion measures even hough Cuban immigrans are governed byspecial ederal immigraion law ha give hem reuge i hey reach U.S. soil.
Ye earlier ani-immigran campaigns in he small owns and one couny in our
counry ha happened prior o Arizonas acioncampaigns ha began in 2006
and are he subjec o his paperhighligh why such legal acion is so cosly pre-
cisely because o he unconsiuionaliy o he ani-immigran ordinances. Tese
small owns hisorically populaed by non-Hispanic whies experienced dramaic
demographic changes as more Hispanics and immigrans moved ino heir com-
muniies. In hese communiies, ani-immigran and someimes racis senimens
were ueled by righ-wing poliicians, exremis organizaions, and conservaivecommenaors who atacked all immigrans.
Te resul oday is a series o cosly legal batles ha burn hrough ciy reasur-
ies afer local poliicians enaced immigraion enorcemen ordinances ha hey
now know are oo cosly o implemen and deend in cour. One own, Riverside,

businesses closed afer enacing a legally indeensible immigraion law, only o
reverse course wih hopes ha immigrans would reurn o heir own and uel
he local economy once again.
Oher locales have pushed ahead, purposeully draining ciy coers o make a
poliical saemen agains immigrans. Farmers Branch, exas, a small Dallas sub-

The rise of fear in small town America
Tere are several common hreads in he abric o each o he owns sudied in his
repor. Tey are small, ranquil, and predominanly whie communiies ha became
unsetled by rapid demographic changes despie heir immigran pass. In hese
owns, i ook only a litle agiaion o unravel he communiies, leaving hem rayed
and discomposed.
One o he rs o reac srongly o his culural enanglemen was Hazleon,
Pennsylvania, a own o 22,000 residens in Pennsylvanias Pocono Mounains,which has a legacy o a coal mining indusry buil on he backs o immigrans more
han a cenury ago. By 2008, all Hispanics, regardless o saus, made up only 4 per-
cen o Luzerne Counys populaion.16
A more recen enry ino he immigraion conrol movemen, Fremon, Nebraska,
has a populaion o abou 26,000 ha is 93 percen whie, mosly o German ances-
ry, and wih only abou 4 percen o oreign-born residens.17 Bu a rise in he num-
ber o Hispanic residens in Fremon beginning around 2008, drawn o he own
by jobs in he local meapacking indusry, creaed a percepion ha undocumened
immigraion was running rampan even hough he legal saus o he newcomers
was unknown.
Te same was rue in Prince William Couny, a norhern Virginia suburb o
Washingon, D.C., where he Laino populaion grew by more han 150 percen rom
2000 and 2006 as he couny was one o he ases growing in he naion.18 Te new
immigrans hailed rom El Salvador, Guaemala, Honduras, and Mexico.19 Te regions
growh in jobs, combined wih aordable housing, made i an atracive area o setle.
A consrucion boom led o an inux o immigrans in Riverside, New Jersey, a work-ing class own locaed across he Delaware River rom Philadelphia. Riverside already
had an esablished Poruguese-speaking communiy, bu local leaders speculaed ha
as many as 5,000 immigrans, mosly rom Brazil, arrived beween 2000 and 2005.20
Riversides populaion in he 2000 U.S. Census was 7,911, and he ederal govern-
mens less reliable coun a mid-decade did no show a signican increase.21

Te dramaic ransormaions in all o hese areas promped backlashes rom con-
servaives and longime residens, who loudly proesed ha he newcomers were
hreaening heir way o lie and wrongly assumed ha mos o he new arrivals were
undocumened. Te proesors voices drowned ou hose seeking consrucive
conversaions over how o manage he changing demographics and respond o some
legiimae concerns. Bu rom one own o he nex, he lis o grievances was hesame: Immigrans were ruining heir communiies by overcrowding schools, hous-
ing, hospials, and rac lanes and requiring English learning classes.
Tere also were he hyperbolic claims ha played o peoples ears: ha immigrans
are noisy, disrupive, ax cheaers, and criminals. Tere were social problems oo,
said he poliically ambiious mayor in Hazleon, Lou Barleta, as he and an ally com-
plained ha immigrans had even ried o sar heir own Hispanic Litle League and
a Laino Chamber o Commerce.22
Spurred by immigraion resricioniss such as Kris Kobach and like-minded allieswho opposed ederal immigraion reorms in avor o local conrols, own councils
began enacing immigraion enorcemen ordinances.
Local enforcement measures
All ve ciies ook similar seps beween 2005 and 2010 o corral wha he major-
iy o heir ciizens saw as ou-o-conrol illegal immigraion. A closer look a heir
acics reveals why hese seps are so cosly or hese ciies.
Hazleton
Te Hazleon Ciy Council passed in July 2006 he Illegal Immigraion Relie Ac
Ordinance, he Renal Regisraion Ordinance, and oher laws which challenged
he ederal governmens auhoriy o esablish supreme law on immigraion maters
over sae and local jurisdicions. Te own approved a $100-per-day ne on any
landlord who rened housing o an illegal immigran.
In addiion, business owners could be ned and have heir commercial licenses

ous invesigaion o he immigraion saus o enans. Businesses also would be
coerced ino checking on he employees o conracors and subconracors.

Following on Hazleons heels, he Riverside ownship in July 2006 adoped
an ordinance also called Illegal Immigraion Relie Ac, which also placed he
onus o enorcemen on landlords and employers.23 Riverside imposed nes o
$1,000 o $2,000, and a possible jail senence or revocaion o business licenses or
landlords who rened o illegal immigrans and employers who hired hem.24
Furhermore, he measure would penalize any or-pro eniy doing business
anywhere in he Unied Saes, no jus Riverside, ha aids and abes an undocu-

The state of the legal battles

Whas more, he coss could be closer o $5 million, no couning new ees being

he ough new law could resul in allegaions o racism, racial proling, and per-
haps he emergence o vigilanism. Police-communiy relaions would be harmed

In is nal repor in November 2010, he researchers analyzed U.S. Census Bureau
and Deparmen o Labor saisics and ound ha he policy achieved is op
goal o reducing he number o undocumened immigrans in he couny because
many moved o neighboring counies, hough he sluggish economy also was a
acor. Te policy did no resul in an overall reducion in crime or a counywide
lessening o neighborhood problems.
Furhermore, he policy creaed a serious ehnic gap in how police and couny
governmen were viewed and in he percepion o he couny as a place o live.Opinions among Hispanics reached an unprecedened low in 2008 bu began o
improve by 2010 as he police deparmen worked on beter communicaions

ers said ha while Prince William is an example o how a local governmen can
have an impac on undocumened immigraion enorcemen wihin he connes
o ederal law, he downurn in he economy also was a major acor.
Te upsho or oher ciies and counies, according o he researchers, is ha
Te lessons o Prince Williams experience should be applied wih grea cauion
o oher places in oher imes.64 Indeed, he research group concluded ha he
Prince William Couny experience canno be easily replicaed, conrary o he
pracices o he ani-immigran movemen o ake an ordinance rom one juris-
dicion and apply i elsewhere. Why? Because Prince Williams acions occurred
during an economic downurn and immigrans could have ed or beter jobs
elsewhere. Also, Prince William had a police chie who boldly oulined he hrea
o civiliy and o he counys nances i harsher acion was underaken, and law-
makers were convinced ha cosly legal batles were no worhwhile.65

The Center for American Progress is a nonpartisan research and educational institute
dedicated to promoting a strong, just and free America that ensures opportunity
for all. We believe that Americans are bound together by a common commitment to
these values and we aspire to ensure that our national policies reflect these values.
We work to find progressive and pragmatic solutions to significant domestic and
international problems and develop policy proposals that foster a government that
is of the people, by the people, and for the people.
