US Supreme Court lets Texas border enforcement law take effect
The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday let a Republican-backed Texas law take effect 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 court has a 6-3 conservative majority, and its three liberal justices dissented on Tuesday. The administration had asked the justices to freeze a judicial order allowing the Texas law to take effect while its challenge to the statute proceeds in the lower courts.
The law violates the U.S. Constitution and federal law by interfering with the U.S. government's power to regulate immigration, the administration has argued.
You're viewing a single thread.
So what stops New York and California from issuing citizenship certificates and work permits to immigrants? After all SCROTUS just accepted immigration can be under state jurisdiction
SJOTUS. They’re clowns, it’s a joke.
B/c, SCOTUS would then quickly issue a “non placet” order.
I am sure the Pope has already thought of a way around that in his ruling.
can you move illegal aliens across state borders? is that human trafficking?
If it is, Texas should be sued ... a lot.
if it is - then in the comment I replied to above, wouldnt New York and California be the ones at fault?
I think they may be referring to Texas governor Abbott sending migrants on buses to DC a few times over the past year or so
that sounds like human trafficking.
Well in the above scenario NY and CA still aren't shipping them to other states using lies and without telling the receiving state.
Texas and Florida have been using state emergency funds to pay private companies 10000x markup to ship illegal immigrants around the nation for over a year and have not been charged for it. They are lying about jobs to trick migrants into this plot. This falls under the terms for human trafficking.
So no, it's perfectly legal for a state to move migrants around. Especially if you are not coercing them.
