Justices decline to review Alabama immigration law
Source: Reuters
WASHINGTON | Mon Apr 29, 2013 9:45am EDT
(Reuters) - The Supreme Court on Monday declined to review part of an Alabama law that makes it a crime to harbor and transport illegal immigrants.
Alabama asked the high court to hear the case after an appeals court blocked enforcement of the provision at the Obama administration's request. The White House said Alabama's law was trumped by federal immigration law.
