Farmers Branch bans illegal immigrants from renting houses - Houses added to ban for illegal migrants; foes say courts will step in again

The City Council unanimously approved Ordinance 2952, which would require all renters to pay a $5 fee and claim U.S. citizenship or legal immigration status to obtain an occupancy license from the city.”*
