ATHENS, Alabama -- Illegal immigrant workers are not welcome in Athens.
A new city ordinance mandates contractors who hire illegal immigrants, won't get work from the city.
Mayor Dan Williams says the city had to pass the ordinance because the federal government is not doing enough to combat illegal immigration in his community -- and it's a hot topic a lot of constituents have a problem with.
