Colorado: Not Immigrant Friendly

09:19 H | Topics: Colorado - Immigration

colorado.gifUndocumented immigrants may want to stay clear of Colorado, or leave if they are already there in light of a deal made between Republican Gov. Bill Owens and Democratic legislatures that would deny basic federal services such as health insurance and services for the elderly to undocumented immigrants. Under the agreement, millions who currently get such aid would be required to prove their citizenship. About 50 million undocumented immigrants could potentially be impacted by the deal. The scary part is that this plan was a compromise deal that doesn't include an anti-immigrant referendum in November, which is what Owens and his legislature pals wanted.
