Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, along with a coalition of 16 Republican attorneys general, including Raul Labrador, has filed a lawsuit against the Biden-Harris administration over a new immigration policy. The policy in question, referred to as 'Parole in Place,' allegedly provides a pathway to citizenship for over one million undocumented immigrants currently residing in the United States. The lawsuit claims that this policy incentivizes illegal immigration and violates the Constitution. Paxton emphasized that this policy exacerbates the ongoing immigration crisis affecting Texas and the nation. The legal action seeks to block the implementation of what the plaintiffs describe as an executive amnesty program.
