Do you think Mormans are pro amnesty because they see the *potential* for converts? Not snark ... just attempting to figure out why conservative leaning Utah would be pro amnesty.

The entire Utah economy is based on growth -housing, utilities, banking, everything. In addition, it's a great way to grow a church. Numbers are everything, legal and illegal.

And one last observation, the Republican Party in Utah is not conservative, it’s LDS. They’ve never seen a tax they don’t like, and are more than happy to have government tell you how to live your life. They align on conservative moral issues only.
