Along with Feds, States Consider Immigration Legislation: This Christian Science Monitor story has a roundup of some immigration laws that various states are considering. Interesting statistic:
Through mid-April, legislators in all 50 states had introduced a record 1,169 bills dealing with illegal immigrants – more than twice the number put forward in all of 2006. Eighteen states had enacted 57 of those bills as of April 19, two-thirds of the number of immigration laws adopted by states last year, according to a report by the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) in Washington.
