Latino leader upset over change in political tide - South Carolina

Diana Salazar hopes that when folks try to come up with ways to force illegal aliens out of South Carolina they stop to remember they’re talking about human beings.

“We’re here to voice an opinion to our legislators and the whole state of South Carolina to please touch your hearts and reconsider these laws,” Salazar, president of the Latino Association of Charleston, said Tuesday in the Statehouse lobby.

She brought about a dozen immigrants, several of whom did not speak English, to weigh in on pending state legislation on the matter.”*
