Other states across the nation have moved forward to protect their citizens. I think this is a common-sense, slow-motion step, allowing localities to take their own way.

I feel like our federal immigration system is broken, and we are not going to fix it with this bill.

It's a pretty broad-based approach and it addresses a lot of things.
