HUNTSVILLE,AL- Owning a business in Huntsville doesn't mean you have to be a U.S. Citizen.
That's what some illegal immigrants are saying this morning. Police officers have arrested at least two illegal immigrants who say they own businesses.
WAAY spoke with a Huntsville busniess owner who says, she's not a U.S.Citizen, but was given a business license anyway.
After speaking with her husband, he says, he used his Mexican ID card to apply for the permits. We took the issue to a city councilman.
Councilman Bill Kling blames the federal government. "the big problem that Huntsville is finding is that congress will not take any action. Neither the Democrats or the Republicans do not want to offend the take any action.
Neither the Democrats or the Republicans do not want to offend the hispanic voters and basically cities around the country such as Huntsville are having a very tough time."
Kling says, "catching these people is a simple as following your gut instinct. City officials asking them, if they're an illegal."
However, some would say, that's racial profiling.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
