“Nearly a year after Texas enacted a law giving state and local police officers more power to arrest illegal immigrants who enter the state, Republican lawmakers in at least 11 states are seeking to pass similar measures, capitalizing on the centrality of immigration in the 2024 presidential election,” the report said. The New York Times I will report.
“The fate of the proposals is still pending, with six already enacted or under consideration and Louisiana expected to sign a bill into law as early as next week. In a federal appeals court case, Texas is defending its state’s law, arguing that illegal immigration is a form of invasion and that it could expand its power to protect the border. Federal courts have previously ruled that, from a constitutional standpoint, the definition of the word invasion is limited to military attack.”
“State governments have tested the limits of their power on immigration issues before, but lawyers and legal scholars say this year’s efforts have been accompanied by the equivalent of a public relations campaign.”
