Alabama May Revise New Policies on Migrants
Nearly a year after enacting an immigration law that supporters describe as the toughest in the country, Alabama is considering major revisions to its immigration policies.
On Thursday, a sponsor of the law, State Representative Micky Hammon, proposed eliminating or altering several of its most controversial sections. The law, which enhances police authority to deal with illegal immigrants, is popular with most Alabamians but faced a backlash from civil liberties advocates and business leaders.
The laws supporters said the changes would make it clearer, easier to enforce and less susceptible to legal challenges.
The essence of the law will not change, said Gov. Robert Bentley, a Republican. Anyone living and working in Alabama must be here legally.
