US Supreme Court won't halt Texas law on illegal border crossings

WASHINGTON, March 19 (Reuters) – The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday declined to
block a Republican-backed Texas law allowing state law enforcement authorities to
arrest people suspected of crossing the U.S.-Mexico border illegally, rejecting a request
by President Joe Biden's administration.

The administration had asked the justices to freeze a judicial order allowing the Texas
law to take effect while the U.S. government's challenge to the statute proceeds in the
lower courts. The administration has argued that the law violates the U.S. Constitution
and federal law by interfering with the U.S. government's power to regulate immigration.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott last December signed the law, known as SB 4, authorizing
state law enforcement to arrest people suspected of entering the United States illegally,
giving local officers powers long delegated to the U.S. government.

Abbott said the law was needed due to Biden's failure to enforce federal laws criminalizing
illegal entry or re-entry, telling a Dec. 18 press conference that "Biden's deliberate inaction
has left Texas to fend for itself."
