Immigration Politics: Florida Senate Likely to Consider Immigration Bill on Monday

Florida Senate Likely to Consider Immigration Bill on Monday: "A controversial bill that seeks to crack down on undocumented immigrants in Florida is likely to be presented to the full state Senate on Monday.

The bill drew several protests last week from a variety of groups, including the state Chamber of Commerce and others who warn that it will make the state -- which depends on tourism -- seem inhospitable to foreigners.

Among other things, the bill would require businesses to use E-Verify, a federal database that includes information needed to check a person's eligibility to work in the United States."
