Immigration & Cops

Capitol Report New Mexico photographer Mark Bralley is a blogger in one of his other lives. His most recent post, August 19, is a long examination of the relationship between citizenship status and local police. Mark's posts are almost always long. Also very good. He makes two basic points:
1. Immigration status is not the job of local cops. 2. There is no bureaucratic mechanism—i.e., no little boxes on the forms—to collect data anyway in a standard manner.
