Florida AG held in contempt: Uthmeier defied migrant law ruling; says backing Trump worth the cost

A Florida attorney general, James Uthmeier, was held in civil contempt by a US federal judge for defying an injunction against a state law criminalising undocumented immigrants' entry into Florida. Despite an initial memo to comply with the court's order, Uthmeier later claimed the judge was wrong and officers could still enforce the law.
