Statehouse Republicans want to deny bail to illegal immigrants accused of repeat drunken driving and serious felonies, and require proof of citizenship to vote.
The proposals announced Tuesday were part of the GOP’s 2008 legislative package aimed at advancing a state crackdown on illegal immigration.
“We don’t know when the feds are going to act, if ever,” said Senate Minority Leader Andy McElhany of Colorado Springs. “Some of these things are common sense that we can do.”"*
