Judge Blocks Part of Florida Anti-Immigrant Law
In the United States, a judge in the state of Florida has temporarily blocked part of a new anti-immigrant law that would make it a felony to transport undocumented immigrants into the state. The measure is part of the policies that Governor Ron DeSantis is implementing against migrants.

Meanwhile, the Arizona State Senate has advanced the process of approving a Republican-led ballot initiative that will be put to a vote in the November elections. The initiative would authorize local and state agencies to detain undocumented individuals entering the United States through the southern border and allow state judges to order their deportation. Arizona Democrats and migrant justice activists have criticized the measure, stating that it further criminalizes immigrants. These were the words expressed by José Patiño from the organization Aliento.
José Patiño: “My dad was deported when I was eleven years old. I remember to this day the fear I felt at that moment as I cried for help from a corner, and how the people who were supposed to protect us, the police officers, were the ones who took my dad away.”
