Indiana House lawmakers passed House Bill 1531 in a 64-26 vote, targeting businesses with more than 10 employees that knowingly hire illegal immigrants.
If signed into law, businesses that violate the measure could face penalties.
The bill originally required schools to report the number and status of unlawfully present students, but that provision was removed.
It still gives Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita the authority to withhold funding for a year from government bodies that fail to comply with an immigration detention request.
The bill now heads to the Indiana Senate for consideration

“targeting businesses with more than 10 employees that knowingly hire illegal immigrants.”
Hey, you clowns! How about ANY BUSINESSES THAT HIRE with no limits. If I only break 10 laws is that ok, will it be the 11th that gets me in trouble. You are idiots. Which politician does want their cleaning service or lawn service affected. Cowards that want to look as if they as standing for something.
“The bill originally required schools to report the number and status of unlawfully present students, but that provision was removed.”
Because if the average person knew how bad it was, there would be an uproar.
Charles Farley—-so you are saying that you object to educating migrant children, illegal or otherwise???…
I would say yes. Send them back to the country they came from and let them be educated there. They can be proud of their culture and fly their flags as they should…on their own land not ours.
