Virginia might be stepping up its efforts to deport illegal immigrants.

The State Crime Commission has announced a proposal that would allow sheriffs and jail administrators to start deportation proceedings against illegal immigrants, instead of waiting for federal agents.

The proposal still needs to be approved by the General Assembly.

many people deserves to go but many also deserves to stay, it should matter about their crimes....is murder or sexually assault etc... people who are good workers derserve to stay, immigrants who came here to start trouble..deserve to go immediately.

Nancy and Lisa, I agree with Jennifer. Your comments only show how ignorant and uneducated you are. This would not solve any immigration issues.
