Florida's Immigration Crackdown Sparks Controversy and Backlash.

Miami-Dade County police said they will not ask for identification to prove the immigration status of a person in the county, ahead of a new sweeping immigration law set to go into effect in Florida in July. The law makes it a felony to transport an undocumented person in the state of Florida, even if it is a relative or someone one knows. Statewide law enforcement agencies are getting ready to enforce the new law, while leaders from a progressive nonprofit advocating for immigrant’s rights have said that the new law will make life harder for more than 770,000 undocumented immigrants living in Florida.
