Mexico Says Texas Immigration Crackdown Is Creating Fear and Panic

Mexico says a Texas law aimed at escalating a crackdown on undocumented immigrants is creating “fear, panic, and uncertainty” among Mexican nationals legally living in the border state and is even scaring off tourists and business travelers.

The measure enacted this year by the state’s Republican leadership, which lets law enforcement officials inquire about immigration status during routine encounters, deterred some Mexican nationals from seeking emergency assistance during Hurricane Harvey, the Mexican government said in a filing to an appeals court weighing whether to block the law. SB 4, as the law is known, will also hinder U.S.-Mexico trade and discourage international students from attending Texas universities, according to the filing.

Well, this is a good thing for us, if "fear" and "panic" motivates illegals to consider going home, and would-be border jumpers to stay home.

Oh Dios mío! America enforcing it's border and laws is causing panic in illegals, I wonder what Viejo México calls the result of the enforcement of their sovereignty, good policy? Their whole bitch is in the cut in cash flow being sent home.
