Florida passed a law making it a crime for people in the U.S. illegally to enter the state. A federal judge said it's likely unconstitutional.
Plaintiffs in the age verification lawsuit said that the law violated the First Amendment, the U.S. Constitution's Commerce Clause and federal law. Florida wasn't alone in facing litigation for this type of law, since Free Speech Coalition also filed challenges in states including Tennessee, Louisiana, Utah, Indiana, Montana.
