"The Georgia Senate has passed a bill that aims to crack down on illegal immigration but stripped a requirement for private employers to verify the legal status of new employees.
The amended version of a House bill authored by state Rep. Matt Ramsey passed the Senate Monday on a 39-17 vote. A similar Senate immigration bill has cleared a House committee but hasn't had a full House vote." ~Associated Press
