IN: Revised anti-illegal immigration plan approved
Revised anti-illegal immigration plan approved
April 29, 2011

INDIANAPOLIS | The Indiana House and Senate approved anti-illegal immigration legislation Friday that was significantly watered down compared to the original version.
Senate Bill 590, which now goes to the governor, requires most Indiana businesses check the immigration status of new employees, forbids distribution of state aid to illegal immigrants and prohibits local governments from refusing to abide by federal immigration law.
As introduced, the legislation would have required a police officer to check the immigration status of any person the officer suspected was in the country illegally.
While the Republican-controlled Senate approved that provision, it was removed by the Republican-controlled House after concerns were expressed by Republican Gov. Mitch Daniels, Indiana businesses and tourism officials.
State Sen. Mike Delph, R-Carmel, the sponsor of the legislation, said he was satisfied with the final version.
"Lawmakers today sent a clear message that Indiana will no longer be a sanctuary for people who are in our state and country illegally because of our federal government's failure to act on illegal immigration," Delph said.
The compromise legislation was approved 68-30 by the House and 35-15 by the Senate.

We are going to see more and more states passing laws that are going to target illegals. These laws are going to be followed up with tougher laws until the illegal segment of our society is removed from our comunities.

Let's get this bill passed this year as best we can then strengthen it in the next session.

Immigration Bill Includes New Requirements For Business
Business owners who knowingly hire illegal immigrants would face new penalties under legislation awaiting Governor Mitch Daniels' signature. Senate Enrolled Act 590 would also ban state agencies and local governments from awarding a grant of more than $1,000 to a business unless they show documentation that they participate in the E-Verify program and require the Indiana Department of Workforce Development to verify citizenship before determining eligibility for unemployment benefits.
