CNN reports that the U.S. government filed its brief in the Eleventh Circuit in its challenge to the Alabama immigration law. “The brief asks the appeals court to block six parts of the Alabama law, including a provision requiring police to check immigration status during traffic stops and a measure requiring schools to determine the immigration status of students.”
Oral arguments in the case have been scheduled for the week of February 27.
The Justice Department has also sued Arizona and South Carolina over their immigration laws, and reportedly is considering actions against Utah, Indiana, and Georgia.
