Looks like Congressional Sen. Schumer plans to defy the courts decision if they uphold Arizona’s law......

Sen. Charles E. Schumer, a New York Democrat who is a critic of the Arizona law, said Tuesday that.... if the court does uphold the state’s law, he will introduce legislation to overturn that decision and grant the federal government sole control on immigration matters....

Mr. Schumer’s legislation would also overturn a 2011 Supreme Court case that upheld a separate Arizona law that requires all businesses in the state to check employees’ legal status using E-Verify, the federal government’s electronic verification system.

He can introduce whatever he wants. Can he get co-sponsors and can it pass?

If Schumky succeeds, our Gov Jan Brewer should then defy Congress (no worry, it will never get out of Congress). Arizona is only enforcing a Federal law that was passed by a prior Congress and signed by a prior President. For anyone with the initiative to read SB 1070, one will find the prohibition on racial profiling.
