We're still watching Idaho to see if it's going to bring up the ICAN bill that gives illegal aliens a higher education. So far we've stopped the bill from even getting to committee. We're working on getting more enforcement of immigration laws here.

PA - this one at least tries to cut benifits for illegals

Senate Passes Illegal Immigration Bill
By Bradley Vasoli, The Bulletin
02/13/2008

Harrisburg - A measure to require anyone applying for welfare benefits in Pennsylvania to provide proof of legal residency passed the Republican-controlled Senate State Government Committee yesterday.

Senate Bill 9, sponsored by Senate President Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati (R-Jefferson), passed 7-4 along party lines with Mr. Scarnati voting as an ex officio member. Provisions in his legislation would apply to anyone seeking Medicaid, cash benefits, in-state college tuition or housing assistance.

In addition to submitting photo identification, those requesting benefits must sign an affidavit assuring that they reside in the United States legally. Signers' backgrounds would be checked via the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Systematic Alien Verification of Entitlement Program.

The senate GOP leadership has said the number of illegal immigrants living in Pennsylvania is now roughly 100,000.

"Without question, we have too many illegal aliens in this country and in this state," Mr. Scarnati said. "This bill acts to discourage illegal behavior, and prevents actions that could place our citizens in financial jeopardy."

Passage in the Democrat-led state House of Representatives looks a bit less probable. Rep. Scott Perry (R-Cumberland) has sponsored legislation codifying the requirements in the Senate bill, but Democrats have opposed moving the bill out of committee. Gov. Ed Rendell (D) has indicated he does not support efforts to pass such measures.
