Florida passed a law making it a crime for people in the U.S. illegally to enter the state. A federal judge said it's likely unconstitutional.

The Florida Attorney General asked justices to put on hold a judge's decision blocking law enforcement from enforcing Florida's strict new immigration law.

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier asked the Supreme Court on Monday to pause a lower court’s order blocking a state law that makes it a misdemeanor for an illegal immigrant to be present in the Sunshine State.
