In Maryland, lawmakers revisiting immigration
Tagged: MarylandPosted on: February 25th, 2007“As states nationwide are embroiled in battles over immigrants rights, Maryland lawmakers are again wrestling with the contentious issue — and showing signs of easing some restrictions.
The most recent flash point: a bill that would allow illegal immigrants to pay in-state tuition at Maryland colleges. Immigrant advocates think the bill has the best chance of passing in years. In 2003, the legislature approved the measure, but Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. vetoed it; this year, Gov. Martin OMalley has pledged support.”
