Court Blocks Local Arizona Anti-Solicitation Law
The ACLU announced today that "The U.S District Court in Phoenix issued a preliminary order today stopping the town of Cave Creek, Arizona from enforcing an anti-solicitation ordinance that infringes on the free speech rights of day laborers in that town. Pending a final ruling in the case, the order ensures that day laborers will be able to exercise their constitutional rights by expressing their availability to work by standing in public areas without fear of being cited under the ordinance."
MALDEF was co-counsel on the case.
Here is a copy of the ruling.
