U.S. District Judge David Ezra's preliminary injunction pausing a law that was set to take effect March 5 came as President Joe Biden and his likely Republican challenger in November, Donald Trump, were visiting Texas' southern border to discuss immigration.
Allowing Texas to 'permanently supersede federal directives' due to a so-called invasion would 'amount to nullification of federal law and authority - a notion that is antithetical to the Constitution and has been unequivocally rejected by federal courts since the Civil War,' the judge wrote.
