RSSJudge denies suburb’s request for ruling on immigration rule
Carolyn Hileman - The Voice* | May 28, 2008 |
A federal judge has denied a Dallas suburb’s request to have its latest rule banning home and apartment rentals to illegal immigrants declared constitutional. The decision issued Wednesday focused on a Farmers Branch ordinance that would require prospective tenants to get a rental license from the city. Farmers Branch would ask the federal government for the applicant’s legal status before approving the rental license. It was set to take effect 15 days after a ruling on a similar ordinance currently being contested in court. U.S. District Judge Sam A. Lindsay wrote that federal courts do not give advisory decisions to assure governments that their statues pass constitutional muster.

On topic and intelligent comments are always welcome as are humorous observations. But liberal talking points with no basis in reality, off topic comments, spam and advertisements are not. Even though you may think you are an intelligent liberal, you probably are not. Keep this in mind as trolling is prohibited and will result in your comments not being approved and comments informing us how much we are a bunch of idiots because you say we are or espousing hate towards the truth are often moved directly to the official “I Hate You/You’re An Idiot” thread. Save us all the time and post there directly if you have a comment that would meet those criteria. Commenters reserve the right to mock claims about how liberal ideas, such as higher taxes, actually work and how conservative and right wingers, are NAZIs, racists, sexists, etc. and will do so with great regularity. By posting a comment you agree to abide by the rules of this site.
