Debbie Riddle
A Texas lawmaker says she plans to push for a law similar to Arizona’s get-tough immigration measure.
San Antonio Express-News and Houston Chronicle report Wednesday that Republican Rep. Debbie Riddle of Tomball says she will introduce the measure in the January legislative session.
The new Arizona law would require local and state law enforcement to question people about their immigration status – and make it a crime for immigrants to lack registration documents.
Riddle says if the federal government did its job “Arizona wouldn’t have to take this action, and neither would Texas.”
Democrats say such legislation is misguided and predict it will hurt the GOP politically.
