Federal Judge blocks the execution of Idaho's new immigration enforcement law
- On Tuesday, a federal judge blocked enforcement of Idaho's House Bill 83, a new immigration law effective March 27, 2023, statewide.
- The law criminalizes illegal state entry and reentry, was challenged by the ACLU of Idaho for violating the U.S. Constitution and federal immigration supremacy.
- House Bill 83 requires local police to focus on undocumented individuals, recording their immigration status during police contacts and establishing misdemeanor and felony offenses.
- Emily Croston, an attorney with the ACLU of Idaho, expressed approval that the court acknowledged the negative and unconstitutional impact of enforcing this legislation, and she remains optimistic about the lawsuit’s success.
- The injunction prevents Idaho from enforcing the law while constitutional questions remain, and the state Attorney General's office is reviewing next legal steps.
