JEFFERSON CITY -- The Missouri Senate voted Wednesday to crack down on undocumented immigration, giving the Highway Patrol new enforcement authority and punishing contractors who hire undocumented workers on public projects.
The measure passed on a 29-3 vote with significant bipartisan support. The bill, which now can go to the House, represents the toughest set of restrictions on undocumented immigration lawmakers have approved so far.
