Immigration hearing roils emotions in New Hampshire

“New Englanders on both sides of the proposed guest-worker plan for illegal immigrants sounded off at a special US House Judiciary Committee hearing yesterday, with witnesses offering low-key testimony while passions bubbled up beyond the hearing room doors.

Across from the New Hampshire State House, the site of the hearing, immigrant rights protesters chanted their support for a US Senate-approved bill that includes the guest-worker plan and a path to citizenship for most of the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the country.”
