Legal Battle Erupts as ACLU Challenges Texas Immigration Law

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has filed a lawsuit against Texas over a controversial law that allows police to detain migrants who illegally cross the U.S. border and authorizes judges to order their deportation. The ACLU argues that the law is unconstitutional and violates federal immigration law. Texas Republicans have been pushing for stricter border security measures, and Governor Greg Abbott signed the bill into law on Monday. The ACLU, along with other organizations, filed the lawsuit on behalf of immigrant advocacy groups and the County of El Paso.
