State House prepared to pass strict immigration bill on Tues.

Red Dirt Reporter received this press release from the media department of the state House of Representatives stating that the House is expected to pass a strict immigration reform bill tomorrow morning.

--BEGIN--
The Oklahoma House of Representatives is scheduled to take up House Bill 1804 for a final vote before sending the measure along to the governor's desk.
House Bill 1804, by Randy Terrill (R-Moore), creates theOklahoma Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act of 2007.
The bill is partof the House Republican majority's legislative agenda, and has now passed both chambers of the Legislature by overwhelming bipartisan margins.
HB 1804 also has the support of two national immigration reform advocacy groups and has been called one of the nation's toughest anti-illegal immigration laws at the state level.
--END--

Let's hope Gov. Henry signs the bill and sends a message that illegal immigration is not acceptable in the Sooner State.
