Florida immigration bill's failure angers tea-party backers

Florida immigration bill's failure angers tea-party backers...Republican politicians across Florida and the nation pounded the campaign pavement in 2010 with fiery rhetoric about the need to secure the country's borders and send illegal aliens home. But when state lawmakers tried to pass legislation during their recent session, those campaign promises fell apart..the Senate — heavily lobbied by business groups, including the Florida CHAMBER OF COMMERCE — balked at the E-Verify provisions. Gov. Rick Scott would have signed the bills!
