Ind. Law - Last Week in Review at the Indiana General Assembly

The Evansville Courier & Press' Bryan Corbin's review this Sunday of the past week in the General Assembly is headlined "Illegal immigration on Senate agenda." Today's story, detailing legislative maneuvering , begins:

INDIANAPOLIS - A debate over illegal immigration that sparked a partisan meltdown in the Indiana House will likely produce more fireworks this week when state lawmakers return Monday.
