Federal Judge Blocks Arizona Immigration Law

U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton earlier today blocked the most controversial parts of Arizona's immigration law from taking effect. The overall law will still take effect Thursday, but without the provisions that most angered opponents – including sections that required officers to check a person's immigration status while enforcing other laws. Judge Bolton also put on hold parts of the law that required immigrants to carry their papers at all times, and made it illegal for undocumented workers to solicit employment in public places. In addition, the judge blocked officers from making warrantless arrests of suspected illegal immigrants.
