Supreme Court backs Biden's immigration policies in recent ruling.

The US Supreme Court has ruled that the Biden administration can continue to focus its immigration enforcement policies on those who pose a threat or have recently entered the country, rather than targeting all noncitizens who have lived in the US for years. The court also said that states generally lack the legal standing to challenge the federal government’s priorities on whom to arrest or prosecute. The decision could enhance presidential discretion in enforcement priorities in other areas of law. The ruling was 8-1, with Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. the lone dissenter.
