Signatures OK'd in Neb. city immigration petition
Associated Press - March 25, 2009 11:25 AM ET
FREMONT, Neb. (AP) - Voters in Fremont might get the chance to vote on a contentious proposal seeking to curb illegal immigration, now that a county official has verified some 3,300 petition signatures.
A letter from Dodge County Clerk Fred Mytty (MITT-ee) released Wednesday says he has verified 3,343 of the more than 4,100 signatures turned in. Only 3,100 valid signatures were needed to force a special election on the measure.
If approved by voters, the measure would bar anyone in Fremont from hiring or renting to illegal immigrants.
City leaders have asked a judge to rule that Fremont lacks the authority to enact such a proposal, in part because federal law would pre-empt a city ordinance.
The council voted down a similar ordinance last summer.
