This Week’s Agenda: Arizona’s Immigration Law Goes Before the Supreme Court, Romney Continues on the Campaign Trail, & Panic Returns to the Eurozone

The Takeaway

This week, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments for and against the constitutionality of SB 1070, Arizona’s controversial immigration law. The case and the Court’s decision are sure to play a roll in this year’s elections. Mitt Romney has all but wrapped up the GOP nomination. But with five primaries in Romney-friendly territory in the Northeast, why is the presumptive nominee still campaigning so hard in primary states? And panic returns to the Eurozone, with renewed fear over Spain and Italy. This weekend’s first round of presidential elections in France only further clouds the Eurozone’s future.
To talk about these issues and more, we’re joined by Takeaway and WNYC Economics Editor Charlie Herman,  and  Molly Ball, Staff Writer for The Atlantic.
