Early victory in battle over SB 1070

Judge Bolton granted the Obama Administration an early victory in its bid to overturn Arizona's problematic law SB 1070, which would have required police to inquire about the immigration status of every person they stopped.  Rights Working Group (RWG) views SB 1070 as a recipe for racial profiling and other human rights violations, and welcomes the partial injunction issued by Judge Bolton.

RWG applauds the introduction of the "End Racial Profiling Act of 2010"
