Modern Political Incorporation in New York City

This is an article that I found online in regards to Mexican immigrants incorporation policially into society. Incorporation of Mexican immigrants is crucial for many reasons. Our book talks about how many politicans would try to pretend to help them and really just use them for votes. This is similar to what happens today. This article talks about assimilation policies and the effects on immigrants. It says Mexicans in New York earn less than Mexicans in Los Angeles. This is because of a large population of Mexicans in one area such as Montebello and East Los Angeses. Do you agree with this article when it says that " the longer the stay in the US, the disadvantages
increased rather than diminished?"
