A local lawmaker is one of several sponsoring legislation that would crack down on illegal immigrants to the state.
Republican Daryl Metcalfe will hold a press conference Wednesday beginning at 10 a.m. in Harrisburg to outline his plan.
The legislation would protect local workers by requiring verification of social security numbers to allow employment, establish sanctions against any city offering sanctuary to illegal aliens, and mandate that any applicants for public benefits provide proof of identity.
Those wishing to view the event can log onto RepMetcalfe.com shortly before 10 a.m.
