Court Rules Texas' Floating Border Barrier Can Remain Amid Legal Battle

A federal appeals court has reversed an order requiring Texas to move a floating barrier on the Rio Grande, which had drawn backlash from Mexico. The barrier, installed by the state along the U.S.-Mexico border, has become a focal point in the legal disputes over border control between the Biden administration and Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott. The court's decision to rehear the case signals ongoing tensions over migration control at the border.
