Senate Bill 2710 passed in a 32-16 vote. The bill which is sponsored by Republican Senator Sean Tindell of Gulfport heads to the House for consideration.
Lieutenant Governor Tate Reeves made a statement: “We should make sure no local governments or state entities have the ability to break our laws, creating jurisdictions of amnesty for illegal aliens. No government entity, whether at city hall or a university campus, is above following federal immigration laws.”
