A federal judge has indefinitely banned the Biden administration from enforcing a 100-day moratorium on most deportations. U.S. District Judge Drew Tipton issued a preliminary injunction sought by Texas, which argued the moratorium violated federal law and risked imposing additional costs on the state, CBS reports.
Biden proposed the 100-day pause on deportations during his campaign as part of a larger review of immigration enforcement and an attempt to reverse the priorities of former Pres. Donald Trump.
Biden made good on the campaign pledge in the first days of his administration, when the Department of Homeland Security issued an order implementing the 100-day pause in deportations, ostensibly to review immigration policy.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton took Administration to court and won a delay in implementing the pause late last month.
