Texas Blocks Border Patrol Access, Biden Administration Appeals to Supreme Court

The Biden administration has asked the Supreme Court to order Texas to stop blocking Border Patrol agents from a portion of the U.S.-Mexico border, where large numbers of migrants have crossed in recent months. This request sets up another showdown between Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and the Biden administration over immigration enforcement. Texas closed off a public park in Eagle Pass, preventing federal agents from accessing a larger and more visible crossing spot, leading to legal disputes and controversy over the state's border enforcement efforts.
