Ohio Senate votes to toughen immigration law enforcement

author Published by Chris Chmielenski

Taking aim at undocumented foreign workers, Senate Republicans on Wednesday, March 24, voted for a pair of bills that give local police and sheriffs a greater role in enforcing federal immigration laws.

The Senate voted largely along party lines 21-11 in favor of a bill sponsored that directs the state attorney general to seek an agreement with federal officials to allow specially-trained local police and sheriffs to enforce federal immigration laws. http://www.daytondailynews.com/news/ohio-news/ohio-senate-votes-to-toughen-immigration-law-enforcement-618933.htmlBy Laura A.
