WI: Proposed bill bans sanctuary for illegal immigrants

Carolyn Hileman | September 22, 2007 

State Republicans introduced legislation Tuesday restricting local governments from offering sanctuary to illegal immigrants throughout Wisconsin. Under the new bill, co-sponsored by Sen. Glenn Grothman, R-West Bend, and Rep. Roger Roth, R-Grand Chute, cities and counties would be unable to pass laws prohibiting government employees from demanding proof of immigration status or notifying the federal government of the presence of illegal aliens. Currently, Dane County has an ordinance blocking government workers from asking for proof of citizenship.
