Will the US Supreme Court uphold Arizona bill SB 1070 and allow Arizona to enforce its own immigration laws?

Attorney On Air

The famous or infamous Arizona Immigration Bill (SB 1070) is making a comeback this week by the US Supreme Court willingness to hear the oral arguments on the case. This law if passed might have a huge effect not only on Arizona but on many states in the US regarding passing ‘their own immigration laws’. So far it seems the US Supreme is leaning towards supporting the law but until the final decision is issued, we will not know. This has been reported by the Associated Press:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Supreme Court justices strongly suggested Wednesday that they are ready to allow Arizona to enforce part of a controversial state law requiring police officers to check the immigration status of people they think are in the country illegally.

Our law firm takes the position that the arbitrary application of the Arizona immigration law SB 1070 will probably lead to racial profiling and abuses. We hope that the Supreme Court in its infinite wisdom, will make a decision that is fair to the immigrant community. Remember “one people, and one nation under God!”
