“Gov. Sonny Perdue has signed a much-debated bill targeting illegal immigrants and their employers, less than three weeks after the GOP-controlled Georgia General Assembly sent the measure to his desk.

In those three weeks, immigrants turned out across the nation to protest federal legislation on the issue, and tens of thousands demonstrated April 10 in Atlanta against Georgia Senate Bill 529 by state Sen. Chip Rogers (R-Woodstock), which Perdue signed Monday.”
