Some citizens and legal aliens are going to get hit with this if they don't have the proper documents when they go to wire money. Mostly though this will hit illegals.

Is Georgia going to monitor the purchase of money orders? If not, all the proposed legislation will do is put a lag in the money flow down to Mexico because illegals will no longer wire money, they'll simply buy money orders and use snail mail.

A lot of them will do that. So what? A lot will still wire money because it's safer and a lot quicker than trusting international mail.

Actually, illegal immigrants using the USPS to mail moneys from the illegal gains in illegal jobs could be considered a federal crime considering the money was earned through illegal means. This would be using the USPS to launder money which is very illegal.
