"Texas Faces Legal Battle Over Controversial Immigration Law"

Civil rights groups, including the ACLU, have filed a lawsuit against the State of Texas over a new law that allows police to arrest migrants who cross the border illegally and gives judges the power to order them to leave the U.S. The ACLU argues that the law is unconstitutional and preempted by federal law, and warns of racial profiling and harassment. Texas Republicans claim the Biden administration is not doing enough to control the southern border, while opponents of the law argue it is a dramatic attempt to police immigration. The law is set to take effect in March.
