They're concerned about appearing "racist" NOW?

If they have a case (or think they have one) there's really no excuse for them not to do it. The law is the law, right? They don't have a legally/politically defensible case and they know it and they know that they will suffer at the polls if they try but then again if they are supposed to be duty bound to uphold the law, so push the button already!
