TL;DR Summary

Thousands of protesters have begun marching in Fort Myers, Florida, against new strict immigration laws. The protests are in response to one of the strongest anti-illegal immigration laws in the country, which goes into effect on July 1. The law requires businesses with 25 or more employees to use e-verify, suspends the license of employers who knowingly employ illegal immigrants, enhances penalties for human smuggling, bans local governments from issuing identification documents to illegal immigrants, and requires hospitals to collect and report healthcare costs for illegal immigrants. The protesters are concerned about the impact on families and children.
