Democratic lawmakers in Arizona plan to propose a repeal of the state's 2010 immigration enforcement law, but concede that the bill won't go far at the Legislature.
The Arizona Republic reports that Democratic state Sen. Steve Gallardo of Phoenix plans to file a bill this week that would be the first legislative attempt in Arizona to do away with the law.

Democratic opponents of the law are emboldened by the recall of the law's author and a flagging public interest in immigration enforcement laws.
