Immigration Politics - Indiana: Arizona-style immigration bill slated for Indiana statehouse hearing

Arizona-style immigration bill slated for Indiana statehouse hearing - wsbt.com: "Lawmakers have scheduled a hearing for a proposal one Indiana state senator says would lead to an Arizona-style crackdown on illegal immigration in Indiana. ...

Delph's proposal would require police to ask for proof of citizenship or immigration status if they had a reasonable suspicion that a person is illegally in the country. The bill would also require that official state documents are issued only in English in most cases.

And the bill includes...  punishment for employers who knowingly hire illegal immigrants. Companies could lose their business license after a third offense." AP
