New
immigrants getting more jobs
A study from the Center for Labor Market Studies
at Northeastern University in Boston, found that from
the beginning of 2001 through the first four months of
2004, the number of new immigrants who found work in the
U.S. was 2.06 million, while the number of native-born
and longer-term immigrant workers declined by more than
1.3 million.

Too
good to be true?
Most taxpayers with home-based businesses accurately report
their income and expenses, while enjoying the benefits
that a home-based business can offer. However, some individuals
have received advice that they can operate any type of
unprofitable "business" out of their home and
claim personal expenses as business expenses.

Advocacy
groups trying to mobilize the Hispanic vote
Republicans and Democrats have long courted groups they
see as likely voters, such as NASCAR dads and soccer moms.
This year, central Pennsylvanians who are black, Latino,
disabled or gay are pushing their members to vote, because
they haven't always shown up at the polls.
