TL;DR Summary

A federal judge has blocked President Biden's plan to provide a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants married to US citizens, ruling that the administration lacked the authority to implement the program without Congress. The decision, following a lawsuit by 16 Republican-led states, has been criticized by the White House, which argues the plan is essential for keeping families together. The Department of Homeland Security expressed disappointment, while America First Legal, a Trump-aligned group, praised the ruling. The Biden administration may appeal the decision.
