Texas immigration law SB 4 blocked again ahead of court arguments Wednesday

After the U.S. Supreme Court had lifted a stay on the law, it was blocked again by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday night.AUSTIN, Texas — On Tuesday night, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a ruling that blocks controversial Texas immigration law, Senate Bill 4, again. That court is set to hear arguments about the law on Wednesday morning.

The Supreme Court conservative majority's order rejected an emergency application from the Biden administration, which says the law is a clear violation of federal authority that would upset more than a century of immigration authority. Opponents say the law is the most dramatic attempt by a state to police immigration since an Arizona law more than a decade ago, portions of which were struck down by the Supreme Court. Critics have also said the Texas law could lead to civil rights violations and racial profiling.
