ALABAMA IMMIGRATION LAW BLOCKED

According to an article on cnn.com:  “A federal judge temporarily blocked enforcement of a tough immigration law in Alabama on Monday.”

This is a harsh state enforcement law that is similar to the one passed by Arizona last year.  Immigration law falls under federal jurisdiction – the federal government needs to pass and enforce the laws in an appropriate manner.  For each state to have its own set of laws it could have the absurd effect of certain immigrants being welcomed by some states – or even municipalities and shunned by others.  This would make the term United States of America seem almost inaccurate
