Supreme Court blocks Florida immigration law

The Supreme Court blocked Florida’s immigration law, supporting ongoing legal challenges.

WASHINGTON D.C., DC — On Wednesday, the Supreme Court denied Florida’s attempt to enforce an immigration law that criminalizes entry into the state by individuals residing in the U.S. illegally.

This decision will keep the law suspended as legal proceedings continue. The court did not provide a rationale for its decision, and no justice publicly dissented.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed the bill into law in February to back President Donald Trump’s efforts to tighten measures on illegal immigration.

Immigrants rights groups filed lawsuits on behalf of two unnamed, Florida-based immigrants living in the U.S. illegally, arguing that immigration is a federal issue beyond the power of the states.

U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams barred the enforcement of the new law in April. The attorney general’s office then unsuccessfully petitioned the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to override that decision.

The law is similar to a Texas law that also has been blocked by a federal appeals court.
