A federal judge in Texas blocked President Biden’s 100-day deportation “pause” on Tuesday, dealing a blow to one of his administration’s most significant early immigration moves.
Judge Drew Tipton, a Trump appointee, granted a temporary restraining order sought by Texas attorney general Ken Paxton. The order will be in effect for 14 days while the judge considers a broader motion by the state for a preliminary injunction.
Paxton, a close Trump ally, celebrated the ruling as a “victory” and declared Texas “the first state in the nation to bring a lawsuit against the Biden (administration). AND WE WON.”
