That didn’t take long. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a complaint and motion for a temporary restraining order in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas against the Biden administration Friday over its 100-day freeze on deportations. Paxton warned that this action was coming if the deportation freeze was not rescinded. The executive order remains in place so Paxton carried through with the lawsuit on behalf of the State of Texas.
Biden moves step closer to Magic Kingdom Pass for illegal immigration
by Roy Beck
Each month, there are around 4 million entries into the United States by citizens of other countries with legal visas.
The only thing that keeps the U.S. labor market from collapsing down to Third World-level wages is that there also are around 4 million exits each month by foreign citizens who do
not decide to
remain illegally in the United States and to compete with Americans for jobs.
But how many of those millions of visitors would decide to stay if they knew that the official policy of our federal government is that they could violate their visas and remain in the United States the rest of their lives without consequence?
Following through on his promise to sue the Biden administration early and often, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Friday asked a federal judge to block a new policy that pauses most deportations for the next 100 days.
The policy, which went into effect Friday, was announced by acting Homeland Security Secretary David Pekoske as part of a comprehensive review of immigration enforcement, particularly amid the challenges posed by COVID-19.
The pause, Pekoske said in a Wednesday memo to immigration officials, will let the agency focus resources on its most pressing needs, in particular at the busy southern border in the midst of the most serious global public health crisis in a century.
