Antonovich calls for more sweeps targeting illegal immigrants
I just found this off of our fax machine, sent from the office of Supervisor Michael Antonovich. With such language like, “taking jobs from our legal residents” and “terrorizing our communities in gang warfare,” I wonder where he falls in the whole illegal immigration debate.

Dear Director Chertoff,
Re: ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWNS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
As a member of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, representing 10.3 million people in 88 cities and 134 unincorporated communities, I urge you to aggressively continue sweeps of employers who hire illegal immigrants -- as well as those illegals who are terrorizing our communities in gang warfare.
As we have seen by the actions of our neighboring state, Arizona, the crackdown on employers violating the law has experienced a reduction of illegals taking jobs from our legal residents.
Sincerely,
Michael D. Antonovich
Supervisor
