Bills in GA on Illegal Immigration (felony, house, employment)

[Editorialist]

Following up on my recent comments dealing with the deaths of two Virginians at the hands of drunken or unlicensed illegal drivers in my own county of Hanover and asking people to get involved in what to do about the situation, I can now give you specifics on how you can accomplish that involvement. Here are bills in the House of Delegates of our General Assembly that need passage in dealing the matter:

HB 1465 to prohibit Virginia colleges and universities from admitting illegal aliens to their schools.

HB 1601 would increase the penalty for driving under the influence without a valid license and causing the death of another to an aggravated involuntary manslaughter felony, punishable by a minimum one year in jail and up to 20 years of imprisonment. Due to recent unfortunate incidents where citizens of the Commonwealth have lost their lives due to illegal immigrants driving under the influence and unlicensed. THIS BILL HONORS THOSE KILLED BY DRUNKEN OR UNLICENSED ILLEGALS.
