| Laws aimed at hiring illegal workers drive many to Texas
Tough laws in other states drive many immigrants to Texas Illegal immigrants are flowing into Texas. But they aren't just swimming across the Rio Grande or trekking through the desert. Many are driving down I-35 or heading east from Arizona.
They're really tightening the screws," said Mario Ortiz, an undocumented Mexican worker who came to Houston after leaving Phoenix last year. ''There have been a lot coming it could be 100 a day."
The growing exodus is the result of dozens of new state and local laws aimed at curbing illegal immigration. The two toughest measures are in Oklahoma and Arizona.

Experts predict immigrants will flock to Houston and other cities in Texas because of the state's reputation as a welcoming destination.
