Farmers Branch Thinks Third Time's The Charm

Farmers Branch just does not give up. Seemingly unfazed by the constitutional problems they encountered with the first two attempts at prohibiting undocumented immigrants from renting apartments in the city, they're trying again.

Interestingly, even the residents of Farmers Branch seem to be getting a bit sick of the repeated attempts, as more and more city money gets tied up in legal costs. The city council argues that the cost to the city of social services for undocumented immigrants is greater, of course. Seeing as most of their earlier claims to that effect have been debunked, I wonder what numbers they're using to support that claim now.
