Immigration Reform
People in Indiana are sick and tired of politicians at the state and national level that do not address the problem of illegal aliens in our workforce. In 2011 we passed legislation in Indiana that I supported, that will require that businesses in Indiana to verify the immigration status of people before they hire them, and only hire people that are here legally. It also requires immigration status be check before giving someone taxpayer provided services to ensure we give government benefits only to people who are here legally. More needs to be done at tha national level, but at least we are taking positive steps in our state to deal with the problem.
