Court Strikes Down Most of Controversial Immigration Law
The Supreme Court today rejected most of the state of Arizona's controversial immigration enforcement law as unconstitutionally infringing on the Federal government's powers. While most of the law was struck down, one provision, which allows state law enforcement personell to inquire about immigration status where there is reasonable suspicion that an individual might be in the country illegally, was upheld, at least for now.
Oyez's summary of the decision spells out exactly which provisions of the law the Court concluded were invalid.
