Arizona Injunction Wins Praise

A federal judge's injunction of parts of the new Arizona immigration law is being praised by several Jewish organizations.
U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton issued a ruling Wednesday delaying the part of the law that would require local law-enforcement officials to check a person's immigration status while enforcing other laws. The judge also nixed enforcement of the provisions requiring immigrants to carry papers and banning illegal immigrants from looking for employment in public places.
"We commend Judge Bolton for calling into question the constitutionality of Arizona's ill-conceived immigration law,"Â said Gideon Aronoff, president and CEO of HIAS, the American Jewish community's leading immigration organization. "The law would cause all Arizonans to live under a cloud of suspicion and fear, and lead to immigrant distrust of the police.
"While today's news is encouraging, we caution that Judge Bolton's ruling is only a preliminary action and does not put an end to the possibility of widespread racial profiling in Arizona. We look forward to a court decision that permanently halts this law."Â
The American Jewish Committee also praised the ruling.
ATLANTA (AP) â€" A federal judge on Monday temporarily blocked parts of Georgia's strict new law targeting illegal immigration from taking effect, including a provision that authorizes police to check the immigration status of suspects without proper identification and to detain illegal immigrants.
Georgia's became the latest in a string of state laws that have been at least temporarily stopped by legal challenges. All or parts of similar laws in Arizona, Utah and Indiana also have been blocked by federal judges.
Judge Thomas Thrash also granted a request from civil liberties groups to block a part of Georgia's law that penalizes people who knowingly and willingly transport or harbor illegal immigrants while committing another crime.
"The defendants wildly exaggerate the scope of the federal crime of harboring under (the law) when they claim that the Plaintiffs are violating federal immigration law by giving rides to their friends and neighbors who are illegal aliens," he said.
The judge was especially critical of that provision, blasting the state's assertion that federal immigration enforcement is "passive." Thrash noted that federal immigration officers remove more than 900 foreign citizens from the country on an average day.
He also wrote that the state measure would overstep the enforcement boundaries established by federal law. Thrash noted that there are thousands of illegal immigrants in Georgia because of the "insatiable demand in decades gone by for cheap labor" in the agriculture and construction industries. But he said the federal government gives priority to prosecuting and removing illegal immigrants who have committed crimes.
The civil liberties groups had sued to have those and other provisions blocked before they took effect Friday, though Thrash did toss parts of that lawsuit. The groups had argued that the law allows unreasonable seizures; blocks a constitutional right to travel; and restricts access to government services on the basis of national origin. The judge dismissed those claims, along with allegations the measure violates property rights and the state constitution.
