Supreme Court reviews law on encouraging illegal immigration.

The US Supreme Court will hear arguments on Monday regarding a federal law that criminalizes encouraging illegal immigration, which the Biden administration is appealing after a lower court struck it down as overly broad and unconstitutional. The case involves a California man who deceived immigrants through a phony "adult adoption" program. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals invalidated the law, ruling that it criminalizes even commonplace speech, but upheld the man's other convictions. The Justice Department argues that the law only targets facilitating or soliciting criminal acts, not "abstract advocacy."
