Texas judge temporarily blocks Gov. Greg Abbott from implementing an executive order targeting the transport of migrants who are released from custody
A federal district judge in Texas temporarily blocked Texas Gov. Greg Abbott from implementing an executive order targeting the transport of migrants who are released from custody.
The order, issued last Wednesday, was framed as a public health measure to address Covid-19, which is surging in Texas amid Abbott's opposition to new mask mandates or requirements for vaccines. The Justice Department sued two days later. DOJ alleged the order -- in which Abbott directed state troopers to stop vehicles suspected of carrying recently released migrants -- violates the Constitution's Supremacy Clause, which establishes that federal laws preempt state laws and regulations.
