TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Aug. 11 (UPI) -- Florida officials introduced a draft "Arizona style" bill requiring police to verify immigration status when they have "reasonable suspicion" of illegal status.
Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum and State Rep. Bill Snyder, R-Stuart, Wednesday introduced the bill, which would require the detention of anyone found to be in the country illegally, while illegal aliens "not under arrest for some other crime" would be turned over to federal authorities for deportation, the Palm Beach (Fla.) Post reported.
