The lower court had ruled that the law was overly broad because it may criminalize speech protected by the U.S. Constitution's First Amendment. The measure bars inducing or encouraging noncitizens "to come to, enter or reside" in the United States illegally, including for financial gain. Circuit Court of Appeals had tossed out Hansen's 2017 conviction for violating the measure. The 9th Circuit upheld Hansen's other convictions and ordered that he be resentenced. Circuit Court of Appeals also ruled against the law in a separate case.

The 9th Circuit upheld Hansen's convictions on mail and wire fraud charges. The 9th Circuit decision applies in the group of western states over which it has jurisdiction including Arizona and California, which border Mexico. Circuit Court of Appeals, which has jurisdiction of a group of other states, also ruled against the law in a separate case.

These groups argued that the law threatens attorneys, doctors, scholars and anyone else who speaks in support of immigration.
