Kansas legislators file resolution calling for "immigration reform"
Kansas' Hispanic legislators on Monday filed a bipartisan resolution that calls on the federal government -- NOT the states -- to work on immigration and specifies that any reforms should be humane, fair and just. --- "We want to take the hate out of the debate," said Rep. Louis Ruiz, D-Kansas City, who proposed the resolution..(STOP THIS RESOLUTION!) House Concurrent Resolution 5026 states, “Immigration is a federal policy issue between the United States government and other countries — not Kansas and other countries.” It is based on the Utah Compact, which has been copied in several states. The proposal also calls on law enforcement to focus on criminal activities “not civil violations of federal code.”
