A couple of weeks have passed since the new immigration law has taken place, and the effects are starting to become visible. Local schools have a smaller attendance rate, businesses sales are dropping and jobs are becoming available.
There are many who are against the law, such as Albertville resident, Anita Tomas.
“It’s not right,” said Tomas . “So many people are here just to make a living. They are working the jobs that most of us wouldn’t work.”
Of course, there are two sides to everything. If someone is against the law, there is someone for it.
Brian Carroll, of Boaz, believes the law is a good one, “If they want to come into this country and live here, they have to do it the right way.”
The law has brought up a lot of anger with some, while others are happy about it. In the end, it will either have a good outcome, or a bad one.
Only time will tell.
