June 25, 2012: The Supreme Court upheld one part of the Arizona immigration law
but struck down other sections below:
- One making it a crime for an illegal
immigrant to work or to seek work in Arizona;
- One which authorized state and local
officers to arrest people without a warrant if the officers
have probable cause to believe a person is an illegal
immigrant;
- One that made it a state requirement
for immigrants to register with the federal government
But it upheld a provision to require
police officers, during routine stops, to check immigration
status of anyone they suspect could be in the country illegally.
What are your thoughts on Arizona's
immigration law?
