A controversial Texas immigration law is once again back in the headlines. Senate Bill 4 – the law that allows Texas police to arrest people they suspect of crossing the border illegally – was supposed to take effect on March 13, but it was halted again by the U.S. Supreme Court until Monday.
Ahead of that date is when opponents of SB 4 came out in droves at the Texas State Capitol, making their voices heard. Although the U.S Supreme Court has extended their pause to determine the constitutionality of allowing Texas to enforce SB 4, it could still possibly go into effect Monday.“Normally, what courts will do, unless there’s some imminent danger, or irreversible action, they will simply say, ‘Let’s wait, and we’ll review this at a later date,’” Stein said.
