Without anything beyond this article, this looks like a preemption (supremacy clause) problem. Basically, states aren't supposed to jump on federal turf, like immigration. (sanctuary cities come from the flip side of that: because only feds have that power, states can't be required to help them, either). Conservatives said the ID theft law was unrelated to immigration (or it may have been preempted), liberals disagreed.Saw this in the comments in the Billy Bloom tweet about millions. Looked it up, and it read a couple of articles about the ruling(s). Explain yourselves liberal legal gurus @Trotsky @Quipling why this shouldn't have been a sweep?
