Immigration is a hot topic – again.  Arizona’s stringent new immigration law was challenged by the Obama administration, suggesting, among other arguments, pre-emption of federal immigration laws.  Judge Susan Bolton of the Federal District Court in Phoenix issued a preliminary injunction against some of the more controversial sections of Arizona’s law.  Under Judge Bolton’s ruling Arizona state police cannot make it a state crime to fail to carry immigration documents.  Judge Bolton further held that Arizona state police officers who have not been trained under Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act may not check a person’s immigration status while enforcing other laws.
