New Immigration Law Takes Effect

· KULR · By Christine Corrado · From the Border Crossing Law Firm media archive.

KULR reports on LR-121 as it was scheduled to take effect at the start of 2013. Sponsor David Howard says the law would save money and identify undocumented residents; Shahid says its immediate burden would fall on citizens and lawful residents newly required to produce documents before receiving state services.

The hostile comments attached to the story, including attacks on Shahid's nationality and religion, provide a stark record of the atmosphere surrounding the lawsuit.
