Mississippi House OKs revised immigration bill: "The bill says that during traffic stops or other encounters, a law enforcement officer could check the immigration status of a person the officer thinks might be in the United States illegally.
People who can't produce documents to show they're U.S. citizens, legal residents or visitors with visas could be jailed. Those found to be in the country illegally eventually could be deported."
The MexicoBlog of the Americas Program, a fiscally sponsored program of the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR), is written by Laura Carlsen. I monitor and analyze international press on Mexico, with a focus on security, immigration, human rights and social movements for peace and justice, from a feminist perspective. And sometimes I simply muse.
