Victories

Oklahoma immigration law loses battle.

A few days ago a federal appeals court board upheld much of an injunction against Oklahoma's hard-nosed anti-illegal immigrant law. The state can now make contractors do audits on an employee versus a government list of eligible workers. In a divided a split decision from a three-judge board of the 10th United States Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver concluded that the United States Chamber of Commerce and a handful of other pro-commerce organizations had legal footing to dispute Oklahoma's immigration law. The law wanted to make accountable companies that hire undocumented immigrants with financial penalties, also they would have the final say who may or may not be fired and require contractors to hold back taxes for employees without proper documentation. The board said that the complainants would likely win with the majority of their claims. The state can still direct employers to a federal database of employees that qualify to work in this country. The lawsuit will now go back to the United States District Court in Oklahoma City so that a judge can decide whether a permanent injunction against the law should be declared. More to follow in the coming months.

La ley de inmigración de Oklahoma pierde la batalla.

Hace unos días un tablero de corte federal de apelaciones confirmó la mayor parte de un mandamiento judicial contra duro de Oklahoma anti-ley de nariz inmigrante ilegal. Ahora el Estado puede hacer que los contratistas hacen auditorías sobre un empleado frente a una lista del gobierno de los trabajadores elegibles. En una decisión dividida una división de una mesa de tres jueces de la 10a Estados Unidos Tribunal de Circuito de Apelaciones en Denver llegó a la conclusión de que la Cámara de Comercio de Estados Unidos y un puñado de los programas de otras organizaciones de comercio había base legal para impugnar la ley de inmigración de Oklahoma. La ley quería hacer rendir cuentas las empresas que contraten a inmigrantes indocumentados con sanciones económicas, también tendrían la última palabra que puede o no puede ser despedido y exigir a los contratistas de retener los impuestos de los empleados sin la debida documentación. La Junta dijo que los demandantes probablemente ganaría con la mayoría de sus reivindicaciones. El estado aún puede dirigir a los empresarios a una base de datos federal de los empleados que reúnen los requisitos para trabajar en este país. La demanda ahora volver a los Estados Unidos Tribunal de Distrito de la Ciudad de Oklahoma para que un juez puede decidir si una orden judicial permanente contra la ley debe ser declarada. Más que seguir en los próximos meses.
