Legislators Propose Laws Targeting Illegal Immigrants

POSTED: 2:06 pm EST January 3, 2006

CONCORD, N.H. -- A group of New Hampshire lawmakers is proposing laws to give the state authority to arrest illegal immigrants.

The lawmakers are following up on highly publicized incidents last year in New Ipswich and Hudson in which police charged illegal immigrants with trespassing. A judge threw the cases out, saying enforcing immigration laws was a federal responsibility.

The bills would increase penalties for employing illegal immigrants, make it a crime to aid illegal immigration and define being in the state illegally as trespassing.

They also prohibit services for illegal immigrants except in emergencies, make it a crime to use false documents to get a job or services and make it a crime to provide false information to register the car of a foreign national.
