Texas attorney general sues Biden administration over deportation pause
Source: CNN
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Friday sued the Biden administration over its 100-day deportation pause, citing an 11th-hour agreement between Texas and the Trump administration that required the Department of Homeland Security to consult with the state before making changes.
It's the first lawsuit challenging one of the Biden administration's immigration actions, coming roughly 50 hours after President Joe Biden took the oath of office.
"On its first day in office, the Biden Administration cast aside congressionally enacted immigration laws and suspended the removal of illegal aliens whose removal is compelled by those very laws," the complaint, filed in the US District Court for the Southern District of Texas, reads.
"In doing so, it ignored basic constitutional principles and violated its written pledge to work cooperatively with the State of Texas to address shared immigration enforcement concerns," the lawsuit adds.

His words and actions demand consequences.
