Utah's Racist immigration law should go into effect, A.G. argues
Based on the U.S. Supreme Court's recent ruling on Arizona's immigration enforcement law, Utah's HB497 should be able to go into effect, the Utah Attorney General's Office said Friday.
The Supreme Court ruling affirms portions of Utah's controversial immigration enforcement measure, the attorneys wrote in documents filed Friday in U.S. District Court. Other parts of Utah's law were written differently to "avoid the legal infirmities of (Arizona's) SB1070."
