“St. Louis County Circuit Judge Barbara Wallace imposed a temporary restraining order Monday that will bar the town of Valley Park from enforcing a law meant to curb illegal immigration.

The St. Louis-area community passed the law in July, making it illegal for landlords to rent houses to illegal immigrants. Dozens of Hispanics have moved out of the city since the law passed, according to residents and Hispanic advocacy groups.”
