The US Supreme Court is indicating it may allow Arizona to (enforce) parts of its (immigration law), known as SB1070. That law includes a (provision) that requires police officers to ask about a person's immigration status, if he or she is suspected of being in the US illegally. NPR's Ted Robbins reports justices seem (skeptical) of at least some of the Obama Administration's claims against the law.
Oobama Administration Solicitor General Solicitor General Donald Verrilli, argued that allowing Arizona to require police to verify a suspect immigration status would (interfere with) federal immigration enforcement. At one point though, Justice Sonia Sotomayor, an Obama appointee, told Verrilli, You can see it's not selling very well. The justices were not as clear about other blocked provisions of Arizona's law, including one (making at a crime) for immigrants to not have (registration papers) on them. A Supreme Court ruling is expected in June. Ted Robbins, NPR News.
