    Mexican legislators propose decriminalizing illegal immigration





    MEXICO CITY Federal legislators from Mexico's ruling party have introduced a bill to eliminate jail terms for illegal migration into Mexico.

    Lawmakers say they want to send a message that migrants should not be treated like criminals.

    The bill says illegal migrants should be fined instead of jailed. Under Mexico's current law, illegal migrants can face two to five years in prison, although authorities rarely impose such penalties.

    The bill also would reduce fines for migrants and the maximum amount of time they can be detained by immigration authorities from three days to 36 hours.
