TL;DR Summary

A federal appeals court has upheld the temporary hold on Texas' new immigration law, preventing its enforcement until a broader decision is made on its legality.

The court's ruling keeps the law on hold while it considers the latest appeal, following a brief period when the U.S. Supreme Court allowed it to take effect.
