It would allow police to arrest anyone who can't prove U.S. citizenship or legal residency, as well as allow state courts to order deportations.
Activist groups tried to fight the measure, saying it violated the single-subject rule of the state constitution, but the state's high court ruled against them this week.

Immigration enforcement is a federal power and federal high courts have so far blocked similar laws in Texas and other states.
