SC House to begin work on illegal immigration bill
SC House to begin work on illegal immigration bill
A South Carolina House panel will begin work on a bill that would require Law Enforcement officers to try to check a person's Immigration status after they're stopped or arrested. A House subcommittee will debate Thursday the measure that the Senate passed last month. A South Carolina House panel will begin work on a bill that would require law enforcement officers to try to check a person's immigration status after they're stopped or arrested. A House subcommittee will debate Thursday the measure that the Senate passed last month. The bill says someone with a valid driver's license, military ID or passport would be presumed a legal resident. If officers suspect someone is in the country illegally, they would have to call Immigrations and Custom Enforcement. But a person could not be held on that suspicion.

And it creates a new unit to enforce illegal immigration law. Read more at the Washington Examiner: http://washingtonexaminer.com/news/2...#ixzz1IpNPLY5L |
