I live in Washington state and and the Democrats own this place. Both state senators are Dems and almost all the reps are too. That's one of the main reasons that illegals are given drivers licenses. Not to mention the fact that this state gives 1.5 billion a year for services to the illegal population. This state is three billion in the hole and the state government don't have a clue as to where they can come up with the money except raising taxes. Some of the counties have unemployment rates of seventeen percent. That 1.5 billion needs to be used to help the unemployed not used to to take care of the illegal aliens in this state.

Immigration is a legal process.
An individual who migrates from another country illegally is not an immigrant, he's an illegal alien. AGAIN , immigration is a legal process.
If you migrate here legally then you are an immigrant.
You can't possibly believe that every American city and state's name is of Mexican descent! That's an outrageous statement.
The ignorance of you liberals amazes me , I just can't believe that some Americans think like you. If we follow our lead any more this country will self destruct.

these are not "illegal immigrants" they are as Queen Pelosi put it "displaced travelers".
Come to my country and live,Please I invite you to live the free life and truly welcome you.....But if you came illegaly then YOU MUST LEAVE AND DO IT THE CORRECT WAY......sorry if you are offended but as a legal resident so am I!!!
Respect the laws of free man and enter OUR country the right way....Millons before have what makes you so different?

Since it was my first time commenting on this page, I wasn't aware that LA stood for the state. My apologies for the blunder. I stand my ground, however, on the notion that Mexican culture is certainly ingrained in many aspects of that of the United States.

Although I'm not advocating illegal immigration, just to clarify:
• Linda Re: "[illegal aliens] not 'immigrants.' calling illegal aliens "immigrants" is baby talk". The labels "illegal alien" and "immigrant" are not mutually exclusive. Regardless of his or her legal status, an individual who migrates to another country is an immigrant, and your prejudice doesn't change that. Whenever the talk is immigration, the ignorance in the comment session soars. And the "Mexican Influence" you mentioned very pejoratively can also be found in the name of your very city and state, and is ingrained in many aspects of American culture, and to deny that is pure denial.
• Hogin, I'm pretty sure that Mr. Hernandez couldn't have come to the U.S. the proper way if he tried for decades.

More illegal aliens (not "immigrants." calling illegal aliens "immigrants" is baby talk) getting licenses simply means our governments, state and federal, are getting more and more corrupt all the time. The Mexican influence. Culture matters.

"I know that it's not OK for people who come here to cross the border, but there's people that come here that want to contribute ... that want to follow the rules," said Hernandez,
So follow the damn rules and go back to your country and enter the United States the proper way.
