Change is afoot this month with Arizona’s immigration statute, and reporters at the popular Washington, DC publication LegalBisnow interviewed Steve Trow to learn more about what the attorneys at Trow & Rahal think about the Department of Justice lawsuit challenging Arizona’s immigration law.
Steve said: “Congress dropped the ball on immigration reform, but that doesn’t give Arizona the right to run onto the field and pick it up. DOJ needs to get Arizona off the field, then Congress needs to fix our broken immigration system.”
