The Supreme Court barred Texas from implementing a state law that would have allowed state police to arrest immigrants for illegally crossing the border.
The court ruled Monday evening to continue a temporary hold that was initially issued on March 4, two weeks before the law was set to begin.
“Upon further consideration of the application of counsel for the applicants, the response, and the reply filed thereto, it is ordered that the stay issued on March 4, 2024, is hereby extended pending further order of the undersigned or of the Court,” Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, Samuel A. Alito, Jr., wrote in the order.
S.B. 4 was signed into law in December 2023 and allows state police to arrest people on immigration charges, an authority that until now was only available to federal police because immigration violations are dictated by federal law, not state law.This second S.B.
Texas appealed that decision to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, forcing the Supreme Court to make the final decision.
