Hazelton, Pennsylvania is not welcoming in illegal immigrants. That is why they passed a city ordinance called the Illegal Immigration Relief Act. This Act would prohibited landlords from renting to illegals and prohibit business from hiring them (of course this is already a federal law that is not enforced).

U.S. District Judge James Munley declared the laws unconstitutional. I haven’t read the bill, or know what the impact is, however, the thing that disturbed me was that the Judge allowed the four illegal immigrants to bring their case against the city without being identified publicly. If these people had been US citizens this would not have been allowed. As far as I know, everyone is allowed to face their accusers.

Bottom line, if you are in this country OBEY ALL LAWS. If you want to sue, then you don’t get anymore rights than any citizen does.
