Northern Virginia Can Serve as Immigration Precedent

An article today from a local newspaper makes the case that parts of Northern Virginia, and our county, Prince William County, in particular adopted a measure very similar to Arizona's in the fall of 2007. The result?
Since then over 2,000 suspected illegal immigrants have been turned over to the federal government [hopefully, for deportation], and crime last year reached a 15-year low.
Not too shabby.
