Utah to scrap key provisions of 2011 immigration enforcement law
Utah to scrap key provisions of 2011 immigration enforcement law under settlement with ACLU

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah has agreed to scrap three key provisions in its immigration enforcement law and put limits on another in a settlement reached with the ACLU.
The ACLU announced the deal Tuesday. Both sides agreed to accept the stipulations of a split ruling on the law that a federal judge made in June.
The dropped provisions include allowing warrantless arrests based solely on suspicion of immigration status and making it a state crime to harbor a person in the country illegally.
The state will limit how officers can implement a provision that requires police working with federal authorities to check the immigration status of people arrested for felonies or certain misdemeanors.
The legislation was passed in 2011 amid a wave of immigration crackdowns around the country.
Once the judge approves the agreement, the case will be closed.
