"Texas Immigration Law Blocked by Appeals Court in Border Battle"

A federal appeals court ruled against Texas in its dispute with the federal government over the state's migrant arrest law, upholding a trial court injunction blocking its implementation. The law, known as Senate Bill 4, allows Texas to arrest and deport migrants and has been challenged by the Biden administration as unconstitutional. Governor Greg Abbott has expressed intent to take the fight to the Supreme Court, while the legal back-and-forth has caused confusion and uncertainty for law enforcement and border communities.
