NE StatePaper.com - ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: Rally Decries LB48: "Held Thursday on the west steps of the State Capitol, the 45-minute UNITY rally decrying LB48 – an Arizona-style immigration reform bill that's been the talk of the Unicameral – drew at least 100 signs. At least three times that in supporters.
Nine speakers argued LB48 – which gives law enforcement broad powers to question and detain suspected illegal immigrants – is a dangerous “unfunded mandate” that implicitly endorses racial profiling and discrimination. "
