Frederick, Md. - Members of an immigrants rights group and opponents of illegal immigration faced off as Frederick County Commissioners held a hearing on their legislative package on Tuesday.
County commissioners have declined to support both a measure that would deny services to illegal immigrants and one that would require a count of illegal immigrants in county public schools.
But immigrant rights group CASA de Maryland and the Frederick Justice Coalition, a group of local churches, organized a press conference Tuesday to voice their opposition to these proposals in front of Winchester Hall. Members of Help Save Maryland, an anti-illegal immigration group, came out to protest.
The county's legislative package does not include a proposal on a schools count, but two commissioners and the county sheriff sent the proposal to the county's delegation in hopes it would be introduced in the next session.

Someone should hold the picture of the murdered lady from Maryland and the names of the people who's homes were invaded by the latest illegal alien criminal. Also read the post from a Richmond Examiner reporter on Channel 4 (under the story regarding the home invasion murderer) very interesting Casa de Maryland won't want you to know about that! I am beginining to wonder just exactly who are behind these groups..............keep fighting for saving Maryland it is going to need all the help it can get!
