MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Alabama's governor and the head of the child welfare agency say the state's new immigration law has not been used to take children from their illegal immigrant parents despite earlier fears.
Shortly after the law took effect, many illegal immigrants signed documents allowing friends, relatives and others to take care of their children if they're arrested or deported.
But Gov. Robert Bentley and Department of Human Resources director Nancy Buckner said this week they know of no incidents where children have been taken from their parents because of the immigration law.
Buckner said DHR is continuing its responsibility of taking care of children whose parents have been arrested, but said records show no greater number of Hispanic children in DHR custody than before the new law.
