“A bill that would have police arrest undocumented immigrants for trespassing is an unfunded mandate that would tax the resources of already strapped law enforcement agencies and have a chilling effect throughout the Hispanic community.

That is what law enforcement officials across the state are saying as they rally against Senate Bill 1157.

Police say they simply don’t have the resources to enforce the law, and they claim it will lead to racial profiling and stop Hispanics from reporting crimes or acting as witnesses. “
