Politics / News Supreme Court: SB 1070 Mostly Struck Down
Posted by Jim Nintzel on Mon, Jun 25, 2012 at 7:43 AM

The Supreme Court has struck down key provisions of Arizona's crackdown on immigrants.But the court said Monday that one part of the law requiring police to check the status of someone they suspect is not in the United States legally could go forward.

Plenty of reaction, we're sure, to come later today.

BTW: No ObamaCare decision today.
