  • Alabama Left Behind on Immigration, GOP Now Courting Latino Voters with Talk of Reform
    Alabama left behind on immigration, GOP now courting Latino voters with talk of reform Published: Tuesday, November 13, 2012, 2:43 PM Updated: Tuesday, November 13, 2012, 4:13 PM By Challen Stephens | [email protected] In the days since the election, national GOP leaders appear to have turned away from Alabama and Arizona, no longer promoting a pair of high profile experiments in aggressive immigration enforcement. And while Republicans in Congress are suddenly talking about immigration reform, for the first time in two years no one in Alabama politics is calling for tougher state statutes. Sen. Bill Holtzclaw, R-Madison, said Alabama lawmakers accomplished their goal with the state law. "I truly believe if Alabama had not passed HB 56, the U.S. Supreme Court would not have taken up immigration law," said Holtzclaw late last week. "As far as from the political standpoint, I don't see any other movement with HB 56 or any other plans," said Holtzclaw. Rep. Mike Ball, R-Madison, said the legislative debate has run its course in Alabama. "Even before the election, the general consensus was 'We've done enough, let the courts work it out,'" he said "It's time for the Congress to have that discussion." "We've done the best we can. It was a complicated issue." President Obama last week earned record support among Latino voters, a key demographic in swing states such as Florida. Two days after the election, House Speaker John Boehner said he was confident Congress could reach a solution, telling ABC News that comprehensive immigration reform was "long overdue." Those comments marked a decidedly different approach than the one espoused by presidential hopeful Mitt Romney.

Eisenhower. This thesis explores and examines why the emergence of a thriving suburban community that voted Republican occurred. This examination used a collection of numerous sources, primary and secondary. Newspapers served as the most important tool for discovering why the new suburbs aligned to Republicanism. The sources describe a suburban area that aligned with the Republican Party due to numerous reasons: race, Eisenhower’s popularity, the Cold War, and economic issues.
