Trump-appointed federal judge indefinitely blocks the Biden administration's 100-day deportation fre

freeze

A federal judge in Texas indefinitely blocked President Joe Biden's administration from enforcing a 100-day deportation freeze, according to the Associated Press.

US District Judge Drew Tipton granted a preliminary injunction on Tuesday, halting the moratorium that the Biden administration announced last month.

The ruling serves as a win for Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican, who filed a lawsuit against the government over the moratorium. The administration's policy was unveiled by the US Department of Homeland Security in a memorandum shortly after Biden's inauguration.

Last month, Tipton, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, issued a 14-day temporary restraining order to stop any enforcement of the moratorium, arguing at the time that the Homeland Security memo didn't "consider potential policies more limited in scope and time" or "provide any concrete, reasonable justification for a 100-day pause."

So? File an appeal and keep the freeze in place. It can easily be stretched to 100 days. Midnight Writer Feb 2021 #5

90 percent of trump’s stuff was stopped by judges. Now president Biden will see this too. Any wonder why we don’t progress very fast in this country.
