According to a report in the Tucson Citizen, Arizona District Judge Neil Wake has denied a request by certain Arizona business groups to put the employer sanctions law on hold while an appeal is heard. The law, which took effect on January 1, provides fines and strict punishment for businesses who knowingly hire illegals. Businesses who care more about cheap labor than they do a secure border have been kicking up a storm of protest to get the law overturned. Judge Wake said in his ruling that the business groups “don’t have a probability of success of appeal, much less a strong probability.”
Oh, I hope he’s right.
