http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/28/us/alabama-immigration-laws-critics-question-target.html?_r=1&sq=immigration&st=cse&scp=6&pagewanted=print

  1. Briefly (2-3 sentences) summarize the article?
This article was about how the state of Alabama are trying to drive immigrants away from there state. When theirs a law that says "No child will be denied an education based on unlawful status"

2. Explain the passage's CENTRAL ARGUMENT. What claims does the author make?

The champions of Alabama's far-reaching immigration law have said that it is intended to drive illegal immigrants from the state by making every aspect of their life difficult. But they have taken a very different tone when it comes to part of the law concerning school.

3.Find TWO ASSERTIONS that support the central argument. Explain how each assertion contributes to the author's main argument.

It is, however a first step in a larger and long-considered strategy to topple a 29-year-old Supreme court ruling that all children in the United States, regardless of thier immigration status, are guaranteed a public education. This assertion is good because this has been oging on for a long time.
