Federal Judge Halts Removal of Texas' Razor Wire at US-Mexico Border

A federal judge has granted Texas' motion to temporarily halt the Biden administration from removing razor wire at the US-Mexico border, pending a preliminary injunction hearing. The order states that the wire can only be removed in the case of a medical emergency. The lawsuit comes as Texas alleges that federal agents were destroying state property by cutting concertina wire to allow migrants into the US. A preliminary injunction hearing is scheduled for November 7, and the temporary restraining order expires on November 13, unless extended by the court.
