Can/Should Florida Profit from Arizona's New Immigration Rules?

[Ed Wetschler]

This story's from Saturday, at which time the Arizona governor hadn't
signed the bill yet (now she has). Question is, can / should  Florida use this to
its advantage? http://bit.ly/aOakRv

Arizona has a lot of snow birds, as does Florida. The snowbirds in AZ are mostly from the western USA, though I know people from New York City who winter in AZ, as well as retirees from the midwest. I don't think FL should advertise directly that FL does not halt people on the street indiscrimiantely to ask for ID as in AZ, but it could enphasize that everyone is welcome, with or without ID. Key West and the Keys already have direct advertising towards the LGBT audience, FL might increase its ads directed at Hispanics in the rest of the USA. Maybe everyone should just reconsider visiting AZ any time of the year. Bob in Seattle
