Maria Uribe and other opponents of Arizona State Bill 1070 rejoice as they hear the news that U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton issued an injunction for the key portions of the bill Wednesday, July 28, 2010, outside the Arizona State Capitol building in Phoenix. The provisions that most angered opponents will not take effect, including sections that required officers to check a person's immigration status while enforcing other laws. The judge also delayed parts of the law that required immigrants to carry their papers at all times, and made it illegal for undocumented workers to solicit employment in public places _ a move aimed at day laborers. In addition, the judge blocked officers from making warrantless arrests of suspected illegal immigrants. (AP Photo/Houston Chronicle, Nick de la Torre) MANDATORY CREDIT
