MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- A Republican senator introduced a bill
that makes modifications to Alabama's immigration law.
Sen. Gerald Dial of Lineville has pre-filed the bill which he says will add common sense to the immigration law.
Dial's bill amends a section prohibiting the harboring or
transporting of illegal immigrants to allow churches or other
"good Samaritans" to provide assistance to people without fear of
punishment. The bill removes a section of the law that prohibits
illegal immigrants from being released from jail on bond. Dial said
his bill would eliminate provisions requiring proof of citizenship
to renew vehicle tags and allow military personnel to show military
identification cards as proof of citizenship.
Dial said many of the changes in his bill were recommended by
Attorney General Luther Strange.
