As African-American leaders, advocates, and people of faith, we condemn HB 793/SB 836. Sponsored by Majority Leader William Lamberth and Senator Bo Watson, the bill will deny undocumented children access to a public education. The legislation is unconstitutional (illegal) as determined in the Plyler v. Doe (1982) case. It is a modern form of racial segregation, or Jim Crow as it was referred to years ago, that clearly targets Latino immigrant families.
