Lawmaker to host immigration reform forum

Staff Reports
January 17, 2007



State Rep. Jim Riesberg, D-Greeley, will host a community forum to review the Immigration Reform laws passed in Colorado and to take testimony on how they have impacted local residents from 9-10:30 a.m. Saturday in the Council Room at the Evans Community Complex, 1100 37th Street in Evans.

"There is still a lot of confusion about just what the laws now say and how they are being applied," Riesberg stated in a release. "There have been several meetings with community organizations along the Front Range where strong concerns about unintended consequences have been raised."

At this forum, Riesberg will distribute information about each of the laws and will take testimony to see if the legislature needs to consider any changes in the laws during the present session.
