The South Dakota Legislature will consider a bill this year that would make it unlawful for employers to hire illegal aliens.

The measure (HB1121) would be enforceable only if an employer knows that the person being hired is in the country illegally. Violators could be punished by fines of up to $5,000 for each offense. Although the offense would be a crime, the legislation does not allow violators to be imprisoned

Finally more good news today! Thank you "Jean" for lifting my spirits tonight. This, the fence and a couple more hopeful posts! WOW hope it all happens!

You're most welcome sosad. You've lifted my spirits at times too.

Agree with Jean - good job SOSAD! Your efforts are noticed around here and appreciated

I'll do everything I can to see that the bill turns into law.

The flood-load of e-mails I have been sending PLUS forwarding information to both the Sioux Falls Argus and RC Journal must be paying off because they are now attempting to find articles to bring about "legal immigration" as today's Argus shows.

Thanks! and Ditto to you! as Jean says, we are all in this together!!

"Safari" we are cheering for you and your state, I am battleing Idaho Legislatures also, trying to get them to Join "Legislatures for Legal immigration"and also to get them to at least talk about the 287g program.


so much bad news somethimes can really get you down, thank the Lord for some good news once in a while, when when start hearing more good news than bad we know we will be making a difference, A goal I am really looking forward to.

The Argus Leader and the RC Journal have a history of "not clarifying" the status of immigrants. I don't know if it's a Gannett related issue or not but I think they do us NO JUSTICE by not fully disclosing the facts!
