Whiplash: Supreme Court decision put on pause by appeals court

Late Tuesday night, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals restored the temporary hold on a Texas immigration law that just yesterday the Supreme Court ruled that Texas could enforce. The appeals court will hold a hearing on Wednesday.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled 6-3 that Texas could enforce an immigration law that would allow local officials to arrest migrants suspected of entering the U.S. illegally. In so doing, it turned down a request from the Biden administration for a temporary restraining order blocking enforcement of the law.

A preliminary Supreme Court ruling that allowed Texas to begin enforcing a state law empowering local police to arrest and deport illegal aliens if the federal government doesn't should inspire other states to follow suit, prominent conservatives tell Just the News.
