Supreme Court extends freeze on controversial Texas immigration law

Supreme Court extends freeze on controversial Texas immigration law

The Supreme Court on Tuesday extended a temporary freeze on the enforcement of Texas’ controversial immigration law that allows state law enforcement to arrest and detain people they suspect of entering the country illegally. Now, with the new administrative orders in place, its implementation will remain paused through Monday. The Biden administration and others filed an emergency application with the Supreme Court on March 4 asking the justices to block enforcement of the law. A federal judge in Austin, Texas, had blocked the state government from implementing the law. But a federal appeals court granted a temporary stay of the lower court’s decision and said it would take effect on March 10 if the Supreme Court didn’t act.
