A group of 14 civil- and immigrant-rights organizations and 10 individuals on Monday filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of
Arizona's new immigration law.
This is the fifth legal challenge of the law, which goes into effect July 29 and makes it a state crime to be in the country illegally. All of the lawsuits seek to prevent the law from going into effect. However, this latest case names Arizona's county officials as defendants, while previous suits were filed against state officials.
Alessandra Soler Meetze, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona, said the intent is to focus on the entities that will actually be carrying out the law. - azcentral.com
