Though I do not believe the other law (asking for ID's) is that big of a deal.

If it is as you describe, that new proposal will be thrown out, on the simple grounds that since Arizona is part of the U.S., any child born in Arizona has been born in the United States.

Now I've heard law arguments indicating some ambiguity in the status of children born here from illegal aliens, but if that ever is changed it will be at the Federal level and not piecemeal from one state versus the rest.
