“A sweeping immigration measure is headed to a committee hearing today, just a few days after it was made public, and immigrant rights advocates say the timing is disconcerting.

SB81 was released Thursday, and agencies and organizations from the Salt Lake Chamber to the American Civil Liberties Union were reviewing the 21-page bill that would make it tougher for undocumented immigrants to find jobs or receive public benefits. The bill would also get Utah’s law enforcement agencies involved in enforcing immigration law.”*
