Famous not just in France, but also in Mexico!
Georgia’s HB 87 gets press south of the border.
El Universal of Mexico City reported from Atlanta 27 June 2011,
Juez bloquea partes de ley migratoria de Georgia
Un juez federal concedió este lunes la solicitud de impedir que partes
de la ley de Georgia contra la inmigración ilegal entren en vigor hasta
que se resuelva una demanda.
El juez Thomas Thrash bloqueó partes de la legislación que penaliza a
la gente que transporte o albergue a indocumentados, y también detuvo las
cláusulas que le autorizan a los agentes verificar el estatus migratorio
de alguien que no pueda proporcionar una identificación adecuada.
Además, el magistrado sobreseyó partes de la demanda a solicitud
del estado.
La mayoría de las cláusulas que forman la ley iban a entrar en vigor
el 1 de julio.
Grupos activistas por las libertades civiles habían interpuesto una
demanda en la que le pedían al juez que declarara inconstitucional la
legislación e impidiera que entrara en vigor.

In case you have not emulated
Mayor Paul Bridges of Uvalde and learned Spanish,
here’s google translate’s version in English:
A federal judge on Monday granted the request
to prevent parts of the Georgia law against illegal immigration to take
effect pending resolution of a lawsuit.
Judge Thomas Thrash blocked parts of the legislation that penalizes
people who transport or shelter illegal immigrants, and also stopped
the clauses that authorize agents to verify the immigration status of
someone who can not provide proper identification.
In addition, the judge dismissed portions of the demand at the request
of the state.
Most of the clauses that make up the law to go into effect on July 1.
Groups civil liberties activists had filed a lawsuit in which he asked
the judge to declare unconstitutional legislation and prevent the entry
into force.

Pithy but factual.
We don’t need to feed the incarceration machine with a private prison
in Lowndes County Georgia that will profit private prison executives and investors at the expense of Georgia taxpayers and Georgia farmers.
Spend that tax money on rehabilitation and education instead.
