Civil Rights Coalition Achieves Important Protections against South Carolina’s Anti-Immigrant Law

Charleston, S.C.–(ENEWSPF)–March 3, 2014.  A civil rights coalition that challenged South Carolina’s anti-immigrant law, Act 69 (also known as SB 20), announced today an agreement with the state that permanently blocks key provisions and provides strict limits on the “racial profiling” provisions of the law. The agreement was also entered into by the U.S. Department of Justice, effectively ending two consolidated lawsuits against Act 69 in the state.
