Here we go. The DOJ is taking Arizona to court over SB107:
The Obama administration sued Arizona on Tuesday to throw out the state's toughest-in-the-nation immigration law and keep other states from copying it.There are protest and rallies to come. I wonder how this will turn out.The lawsuit filed in federal court in Phoenix said the law, due to take effect July 29, usurps the federal government's "pre-eminent authority" under the Constitution to regulate immigration.
The move sets the stage for a high-stakes legal clash over states' rights at a time when politicians in some other states have indicated they want to follow Arizona's lead.
The legal action represents a stern denunciation of the law, which the Justice Department declared will "cause the detention and harassment of authorized visitors, immigrants and citizens who do not have or carry identification documents" while ignoring "humanitarian concerns" and harming diplomatic relations.

"If this body is not capable of action, I suggest new leadership is needed. I move for a vote of no confidence in Arizona's leadership!" - adapted quote from Queen Amidala.
This is a mess!!!
Well if it does get overturned hopefully Obama can come up with an effective immigration reform plan because this is a big problem in our country. I personally think individuals should enter our country legally and not be placated for illegally doing so.
