The Biden administration’s plan to freeze deportations for 100 days was temporarily blocked again by a federal judge in Texas over a lawsuit arguing the federal government can’t make immigration enforcement changes without first consulting the state.
District Judge Drew Tipton in Victoria, Texas, on Tuesday extended by two weeks a temporary restraining order against the deportation pause that was set to expire. Texas has also requested a longer-lasting injunction that could block the plan during the entire litigation, with a hearing set for Feb. 19, Bloomberg reported.
