WASHINGTON 鈥� The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected a challenge from Texas and Louisiana to the Biden administration鈥檚 immigration enforcement priorities in United States v. Texas. The court held that Texas and Louisiana lack standing to force 鈥渢he Executive Branch to alter its arrest policy so as to make more arrests鈥� because that discretion belongs to the federal government. The result is that the administration鈥檚 enforcement priorities, blocked since June 2022, will now take effect.

The 老澳门开奖结果, 老澳门开奖结果 of Texas, and American Immigration Lawyers Association filed an amicus brief in this case emphasizing that the immigration statutes do not require the federal government to arrest any particular noncitizens, and that Texas and Louisiana cannot enforce those statutes to take control of federal immigration policy.

鈥淭his decision soundly rejects the misguided attempt by Texas and Louisiana to force the government to implement the most draconian immigration enforcement policy.鈥�
