Two Lawsuits Filed Today Attempt to Block Arizona’s New Immigration Law

29 Apr 2010

Two lawsuits were filed today attempting to block Arizona’s new, restrictive immigration law. The first, was filed in the U.S. District Court in downtown Phoenix by the National Coalition of Latino Clergy and Christian Leaders. In the suit, the organization claims that the law is illegal because it assumes the federal government’s role in immigration enforcement and the law may lead to racial profiling. The coalition represents 20,000 churches in 34 states throughout the U.S.

The second suit was filed in the U.S. District Court in Tucson by a lawyer representing a Tucson police officer and additionally attempts to block the law. Three other groups are currently also planning to file suits in the near future. These groups include the ACLU of Arizona, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund and the National Immigration Law Center, all of whom claim the law is unconstitutional and supports racial profiling.
