Yesterday The Epoch Times<\/a> reported:<\/p>\n

A federal judge in Texas<\/a> extended the suspension of President Joe Biden<\/a>\u2019s 100-day moratorium on deportations until Feb. 23.<\/strong><\/p>\n

U.S. District Court Judge Drew Tipton in the Southern District of Texas on Tuesday ruled that the federal government cannot make immigration enforcement changes without consulting Texas. As a result, he extended the temporary restraining order by another 14 days, asserting that the state of Texas would face more harm than the federal government if the extension wasn\u2019t granted.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201dThe irreparable harm that would accrue to Texas if an extension of the [temporary restraining order] is not granted before consideration of its motion for a preliminary injunction is more substantial than any harm incurred by the defendants,\u201d wrote Tipton in his ruling, adding that his ruling will give parties\u00a0more time to \u201cprovide for a more fulsome record\u201d to assist the court in \u201cadjudicating Texas\u2019s motion for a preliminary injunction.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the information on the lawsuit that has resulted in the suspension:<\/p>\n

Last month, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican, sued the Biden administration over its order to pause some deportations, asserting that the White House would violate its agreement with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which oversees Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S.-Mexico border security, and instead requires 180 days\u2019 notice to change immigration policy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cOn its first day in office, the Biden Administration cast aside congressionally enacted immigration laws and suspended the removal of illegal aliens whose removal is compelled by those very laws. In doing so, it ignored basic constitutional principles and violated its written pledge to work cooperatively with the State of Texas to address shared immigration enforcement concerns,\u201d Paxton\u2019s lawsuit said<\/a>. \u201cThis unlawful reversal will cause Texas immediate and irreparable harm if it is not enjoined.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

So why is a secure border important? Well, Mexico has a high rate of the coronavirus–if Americans are being told to wear masks, socially distance, and get the vaccine, why are we letting unmasked, unvaccinated groups of illegals potentially create a ‘super-spreader’ event? Why are we letting the cartels bring drugs and human trafficking victims across the border unchecked? Why are we allowing potential terrorists into the country without being screened? The Biden administration’s immigration policy is not only a threat to the safety and security of Americans, it will also result in higher unemployment for Americans. We need more states to sue and more judges to stand up for the rule of law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
