SC House Reaches Agreement on Immigration Bill, Senate Does Not

Wednesday, Apr 23, 2008 - 01:54 PM

Chairman of the House, Representative Jim Harrison, says the House has signed an agreement for the newly proposed immigration bill, but the Senate has not.

The new bill will try to prevent employers from firing a current employee and replacing him with an illegal immigrant. If this does happen, the former employee can sue to get his/her job back.

Harrison says he won’t present the agreement to the full House to see if it’ll go along until the senators sign it. Then the full House and Senate will have to approve the final agreement.
