Yes, California.
Hypocrites abound...
Maybe someone can confirm; was this provision thrown out by the California courts?
California’s law is almost identical to Arizona’s. Missouri also has a very similar law.
Apparently there are claims that this is unenforceable. Something about the proposition it was tied to not being passed.
Any idea what that’s about?
I guessed it was Calif the minute I started reading this.
A law is just words on paper until it’s enforced, and the current invasion of illegals are banking on that.
I heard something about this on somebody’s radio show and I think they said something like the difference between them
was that in Cal. the person has to be ‘arrested’ for some offense before inquiring into their legal status,
while in Arizona, the law says the person has to be ‘stopped’ for some other purpose before inquiring into their legal status.
Other than that they were pretty much the same.
At least that’s what I think they said.
That was part of Prop186 which is currently under a permanent injunction preventing it from being enforced.
FWIW, the injunction was never appealed. The law is on the books but unless the Governor were to direct the Attorney General to file an appeal to overturn the injuntion, the law is unenforceable.
Maybe someone should ask Meg Whitman whether she would be willing to challenge the injunction.
