Judge Susan Bolton blocked key parts of Arizona’s SB 1070
US District Judge Susan Bolton issued a short-term injunction that halted crucial components of SB 1070, the Arizona immigration law, that would have necessary police to verify the immigration status of anyone they suspected of getting an illegal resident.
A federal judge in Phoenix issued a temporary injunction Wednesday blocking implementation of the toughest portions of Arizona’s controversial immigration law, known as SB 1070, but the judge allowed other sections from the state statute to stand.
U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton agreed to block the section of the law that necessary neighborhood and point out law enforcement officials to verify the immigration position of those they suspected have been illegal immigrants.
That was the provision that critics stated would result in racial profiling.
Judge Bolton’s decision is an essential victory for the Obama administration in the face of a increasing tide of concern between numerous states that the federal government is not successfully enforcing immigration law or efficiently protecting US borders.
5 states have released legislation equivalent to Arizona’s law, and 20 others are reportedly thinking about it.
The ruling adds fuel to an previously heated national debate over US immigration policy and sets the stage for much more rounds of litigation in a circumstance that could at some point make its solution to the US Supreme Court.
In her ruling, Bolton also blocked a portion of the law that necessary point out officials to check the immigration position of anyone in custody in Arizona prior to they were released from jail.


I want AZ Governor Jan Brewer to show papers to prove she’s a human being. I think it was FOX that did a show on extraterrestrials that live among us, and Governor Brewer does resemble some alien from a B Movie, “Invasion of the Brain Snatchers”, right? I’ve have my suspicions about people like Jan Brewer, Mitch McConnell and Karl Rove because of their lack of human qualities.
As far as the immigration issue goes… Republicans never made a big deal about immigration enforcement during Bush/Cheney but NOW all conservative hell is breaking loose… even though the Obama Administration is deporting MORE illegal’s than Bush ever did. Maybe we should adopt Ronald Wilson Reagan’s immigration policy (look it up morons)
And funny how I didn’t hear NOT ONE WORD on the Cable News about AZ Gov. Jan Brewer’s connection with the Corrections Corp of America. Not to mention I could stop this immigration problem with one thing… ARREST ALL THOSE conservative business people WHO ARE HIRING THE ILLEGAL WORKERS! Republican Party = Hypocrisy
On 7-28-10 I was watching Republicans on Morning Joe (MSNBC) preach about being ADULTS when it comes to our economic meltdown. I say BS! The real ADULTS are trying to demand accountability from those who got us in this financial mess. Republicans want to shift the burden of responsibility on Teachers unions and others in the American working class.
I wonder if the spoiled Silver Spoons on Morning Joe knew how much they hurt Democrats, Progressives, Liberals when they didn’t challenge NJ Gov. Christie. NOW all over the internet the Conservative wacko groupies are swooning all over Christie like he was a rock star. Of course, because of these Republican low grade thought processes, the right wing monkeys now consider teachers, poor people and immigrants the biggest threat to our economy.
What kind of Americans are stupid enough to believe decent wages/working conditions, regulation, Wall St. reform and making the rich pay their fair share are BAD THINGS! Republicans will take tax dollars away from grade schools to give BP tax breaks/subsidies. DON’T BELIEVE ME, you rightwing numbskulls, CHECK IT OUT FOR YOURSELVES!
