U.S. Supreme Court temporarily blocks Texas' controversial 'show me your papers' law
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday evening temporarily halted Texas’ controversial immigration law that would allow local and state law enforcement to arrest people suspected of crossing the border illegally, according to the Texas Tribune. Senate Bill 4, which was scheduled to take effect Tuesday, also would permit Texas judges to deport those found guilty of being in the country without papers. The Supreme Court ruling halts the law from going into effect until March 13 so justices can review its legality.
