US EditionFlorida AG Asks Supreme Court to Pave Way for New Immigration Law
- On June 23, Florida officials petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to permit enforcement of a recently enacted immigration law that criminalizes unauthorized entry into the state.
- The law was signed in February amid President Trump's immigration crackdown and has faced ongoing legal challenges claiming it violates federal supremacy.
- In April, a federal judge issued an injunction prohibiting the law's enforcement across the state, and last week, the judge found Uthmeier in contempt for directing law enforcement to persist with the law's implementation despite the court's order.
- Uthmeier argued in his emergency appeal that the state must protect itself from illegal immigration harms and called the injunction overly broad, applying to officers without court hearings.
- The Supreme Court's decision will determine whether Florida can enforce the law amid continued disputes over states' rights and federal immigration authority.
