Supreme Court Allows Texas to Enforce Controversial Immigration Law
The Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that Texas can enforce its controversial law permitting state law enforcement officials to arrest and detain anyone they suspect of being in the country illegally.
The new order undoes an indefinite stay issued by conservative Justice Samuel Alito yesterday, while the court waits for a decision from the Fifth Circuit Court of Federal Appeals, which Alito oversees.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett, joined by Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote the order vacating Alito’s decision.
