His suggestion, made Tuesday, came as the state released a survey showing a shortage of about 11,000 farm laborers at the beginning of the harvest season for many crops.

Just like Roaches when confronted with a bright light - the illegals will just move to another state until that state is forced to enact anti-illegal alien laws aswell. Then the process will repeat itself again.
