"documentation of a tenant's immigration status."
Just what is that? Does any government issue this documentation?
If it issues it, it MUST issue it for ALL people regardless of the language spoken.
If this becomes a law, a property owner MUST get the documentation from ALL prospective tenants.
This is stupid and wrong because:
It is an attempt to shift the burden of enforcement from the government to someone else, complete with penalties.
It would force the property owner to find out the legal status of a prospective tenant.
There is no "document" of legal status for ALL people. Those who were born in the USA can obtain a birth certificate, which is not proof of legal status, since there is no way to correlate the birth certificate with a specific individual.
The government is not doing its job and is trying to dump its responsibility onto property owners.
Yeah, illegals are really hard to spot. (sarc)

I agree completely. What is surprising that people who say they are conservatives are enthusiastically endorsing this government control of private enterprise.
As someone else said, why don't they build a fence instead.
