Immigrant Bill Killed

From Patti Donnelly:

Great news! Kerrie Wilson just called from Richmond after attending the Sentate Rehabilitation and Social Service Sub-committee. HB2937 was killed in sub-committee! This is the bill that would have restricted our ability to serve immigrants without proper documentation. It was defeated by one vote. Unfortunately it was a partisan vote. We certainly have some work to do between sessions to ensure that no such bill gets introduced again next year.
