Updates on Oklahoma's Use of E-Verify

On June 4, 2008, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma issued an injunction barring the state from enforcing the state's E-Verify law. The injunction will prevent Oklahoma from enforcing the law until a final decision is reached on whether the Oklahoma law should be invalidated because it is preempted by federal law. Oklahoma has appealed the district court’s decision and we will keep you updated the litigation.
