“A suburban Atlanta county has agreed to temporarily block a new ordinance that bans landlords from renting to illegal immigrants, after activists launched a legal attack against it.

Cherokee County has entered a consent order to delay enacting the ordinance until challenges of similar laws in Hazleton, Pa., and the St. Louis suburb of Valley Park, Mo., are resolved, lawyers said Friday. The new measure had been set to take effect Jan. 1.”
