Another One (State Immigration Law) Bites the Dust -- At Least for Now
Earlier today, we reported on a court enjoining an Arizona town from enforcing an anti-day laborer ordinance. Here is more good news. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce announced today that "[a] U.S. District Court judge postponed enforcement of employer-related portions of an Oklahoma immigration law because it is `substantially likely' that the provisions of the law unconstitutionally interfere with federal regulation of the employment of unauthorized workers. Joining as co-plaintiffs are The State Chamber of Oklahoma, Greater Oklahoma City Chamber, Tulsa Metro Chamber, Oklahoma Restaurant Association and Oklahoma Hotel and Lodging Association."
