Panel at Arizona Legislature Endorses Employer Sanctions Bill

“A proposal aimed at confronting employers who hire illegal immigrants won approval Tuesday from a committee at the Arizona Legislature.

“It creates an even, fair, honest, competitive field for those folks who follow the law, said Republican Rep. Russell Pearce of Mesa, sponsor of the proposal HB2779.”
