“Immigrant rights advocates are gearing up to fight a proposal to fine landlords who rent to illegal immigrants in Cherokee County.

The proposal, which would require property owners to prove their tenants live in the country legally, will be the focus of a public hearing Tuesday night by the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners.

The Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials is asking its supporters to show up at Tuesday’s hearing and speak out against the proposal.”
