A proposed law aimed at banishing illegal immigrants from Fremont, Neb. — believed to be the first such city-sponsored initiative in the state — has sparked an outcry from a state agency that advocates for Latinos.
Though Fremont’s appears to be the state’s first elected city council to propose an ordinance that would ban harboring and renting to illegal immigrants, lawmakers in other U.S. localities have introduced similar initiatives.
Bob Warner, the longtime Fremont councilman who sponsored the proposal, said he did so because residents were “sick and tired” of what he said was the federal government’s lax enforcement of immigration laws.
He said Fremont residents want their own immigration laws.
“I’ll fight to the dying end to do what they want,” Warner said. “I don’t know why everybody is making a mountain out of something that is very simple.”
