Texas Federal Judge Temporarily Halts Biden Program for Immigrant Spouses
Aug 27, 2024, 12:35 AM
A federal judge in Texas has issued a temporary injunction against a Biden administration program that provides legal status to undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens. This decision, made by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas on Monday, halts the program that offers protections and a pathway to a green card for these individuals. The ruling comes in response to a lawsuit led by 16 Republican-led states, including Texas, and spearheaded by Ken Paxton, challenging the legality of the program. The program, known as 'parole in place,' allows immigrant family members of U.S. citizens to seek removal protections and work permits without leaving the country.
