Supreme Court Allows Immigration Checks
The Wall Street Journal’s Jess Bravin reports on the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision Monday on Arizona’s controversial immigration law. The court struck down the section of the law that “made it a crime for illegal immigrants to seek work and that authorized warrantless arrests of people suspected by state and local police of committing deportable offenses.” But the ruling also upheld “the law’s directive that state and local police check the immigration status of people they stop when they suspect them of lacking authorization to be in the U.S.”
