Immigration Politics: Florida State senator files immigration bill

The Florida legislature considers getting in on the anti-immigrant act

State senator files immigration bill: "State Sen. Mike Bennett, R-Bradenton, filed a bill that would bring an Arizona-style law to Florida. Unlike in Arizona, the bill would only allow authorities to question suspected illegal immigrants if they've broken the law.

Critics of the bill call it intrusive nonetheless, especially in a state where illegal immigration may not be that big of an issue.

Florida is hundreds of miles away from the Mexican border and most of its large Cuban population enjoys asylum." Dec. 27, 2010, Channel 13
