The Virginia General Assembly will take up a slew of new immigration proposals when it convenes in January, including one proposal that mimics a controversial Arizona law that allows police to check the immigration status of anyone they arrest.
The measures were prefiled by Del. Dave Albo, R-Fairfax, who has pushed before to strengthen the state’s handling of illegal immigrants, including proposals that would prevent those immigrants from getting driver’s licenses or government benefits.
