"Revitalizing The Golden State" by Hinojosa with the Center of American Progress
![]() Worker Prepping Flowers
California is no stranger to anti-immigrant sentiment. This immigrant-rich state has grappled with issues related to legal and illegal immigration for decades. In 1994, then-Gov. Pete Wilson staked his political fortunes to a measure similar to S.B. 1070, Arizona’s immigration enforcement law. The Wilson-backed measure—known as Proposition 187—died in the courts but triggered a political backlash against the state’s Republican establishment that persists to this day.

![]() ISSS Enrollment Policy Brief by Hinojosa and Hadler.
“Based on more than 100 interviews with Salvadoran residents of California at the Consulate General of El Salvador in Los Angeles, the study results show strong interest in ISSS enrollment. Sixty-four percent of the study participants said they were willing to pay at least $30 per month to enroll. Given the low rates of health insurance coverage among Salvadoran migrants in the U.S. and their inability to enroll in ISSS because they are not registered employees in El Salvador, an institutional reform that incorporates Salvadoran migrants into ISSS could improve access to health care services for a population that is critically important to the Salvadoran economy and protect migrants from the catastrophic health care costs they currently incur in the uninsured private market.”

NAID Center Media![]() Lexington: Bin Laden's Legacy
"American blue-collar workers fear that Mexican immigrants will undercut their wages. Mr Hinojosa-Ojeda says they won’t if they are legal. The fear of deportation makes illegal workers accept worse conditions, he finds. Once legal, they demand higher wages, and no longer drag down those of the native-born. And once immigrants are confident that they can stay, they are more likely to invest in the future, for example by starting a business." >>To read more...
