A federal judge is temporarily blocking Iowa's new immigration law. The judge ruled yesterday that a law imposing state criminal penalties on undocumented immigrants is unconstitutional and can't be enforced. The law was signed by Governor Kim Reynolds in April. The measure made it a state crime to enter Iowa after being deported or denied entry into the United States. Reynolds and Iowa Attorney General said they will appeal the decision.
