The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the so-called “show me your papers” provision of Arizona’s immigration law, but struck down the rest. Could the ruling impact how California law enforcement deals with undocumented immigrants? And with both presidential candidates vying for Latino voters this fall, how could the decision influence immigration policy in an election year?

Guests:

Rory Little, professor of law at UC Hastings College of the Law

Karthick Ramakrishnan, associate professor of political science at UC Riverside

Gabriela Villareal, policy manager for the California Immigrant Policy Center
