A federal judge in Texas called a halt to President Joe Biden‘s “100-day suspension of deportation in the United States” executive order on 26th, which is only six days after Biden took office, giving his government’s most important immigration order a head start.
Texas federal judge Drew Tipton, appointed by former President Trump, issued a temporary restraining order (restraining order) against Biden’s deportation ban on the 26th, valid for 14 days, during which the judge will continue to consider whether to grant the temporary restraining order (preliminarily injunction) requested by Texas.
As one of the first executive orders signed after Biden took office, the Biden Administration asked the Department of Homeland Security under the jurisdiction of the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to suspend deportation of certain non-U.S. citizens (certain noncitizens) for 100 days in order to give ICE Time to reform enforcement priorities.
Biden’s executive order does not apply to those who arrived in the United States after Nov. 1 of last year, or those involved in national security.
But the executive order was immediately taken to court by Texas, which argued that the Biden administration’s deportation ban violated an agreement the state signed with the Trump Administration that required the federal government to obtain Texas’ permission before making changes to its immigration enforcement policies.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a close ally of former President Trump, immediately afterward called the decision a victory, claiming Texas was the first state in the nation to file a lawsuit against the Biden administration.
“And we won. He said Biden’s policies were pure insurrection, a disorderly left-wing insurrection.
