Immigration advocates say there are now heightened fears of deportation in the wake of a federal judges July ruling that blocked the Biden administrations immigration enforcement guidelines.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton argued that rolling back the Trump-era policy was “arbitrary” and “capricious” “He has no criminal history," Shah said. "He's got deep, deep roots in the country, and has [children who are] U.S. citizens. He's married, and he's just a hard-working guy who happens to be here without any authorization."
In a statement, Paxton said, “I continue to be baffled at the blatant disregard for the law that the Biden administration has repeatedly shown. It is beyond logic as to why they would want to break the law and threaten the safety of fellow Americans. If President Biden thinks the State of Texas isn’t ready to fight him and his disastrous border policies on every front, he’s dead wrong.”
Undocumented immigrants and asylum-seekers continue to cross over into the U.S., adding to backlogs in the immigration court system. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has responded to crisis by busing migrants from Texas to cities like New York, Washington, D.C., and Chicago to protest Biden's immigration policies.

For one year, abortion after around six weeks of pregnancy has been banned in Texas.
