Judge J. Campbell Barker Blocks Biden Program, Impacting 500,000 Immigrant Spouses
Aug 27, 2024, 01:53 AM
A federal court in Texas, led by Judge J. Campbell Barker, has temporarily blocked a Biden administration program that provided legal status to undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens. The program, announced in June, aimed to offer a pathway to citizenship without requiring spouses to leave the country. The decision came after 16 Republican-led states filed a lawsuit against the program. The judge's order halts the program for at least two weeks, impacting up to 500,000 undocumented immigrants.
