Supreme Court rejects Texas and Louisiana challenge to Biden deportation priorities
 
Quote:

The Supreme Court, in an 8-1 ruling on Friday, revived the Biden administration’s immigration guidelines that prioritize which noncitizens to deport, dismissing a challenge from two Republican state attorneys general who argued the policies conflicted with immigration law.

The court said the states, Texas and Louisiana, did not have the “standing,” or the legal right, to sue in the first place in a decision that will further clarify when a state can challenge a federal policy in court going forward.

The US Supreme Court building is seen in Washington, DC, on April 6.
Supreme Court upholds provision of federal law that prohibits encouragement of illegal immigration.

The ruling is a major victory for President Joe Biden and the White House, who have consistently argued the need to prioritize who they detain and deport given limited resources. By ruling against the states, the court tightened the rules concerning when states may challenge federal policies with which they disagree. The Biden administration policy was put on pause by a federal judge nearly two years ago and the Supreme Court declined to lift that hold last year.

Quote:

Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote Friday’s majority opinion in the case.

“In sum, the states have brought an extraordinarily unusual lawsuit,” Kavanaugh wrote, in an opinion joined by Chief Justice John Roberts, and Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson. “They want a federal court to order the Executive Branch to alter its arrest policies so as to make more arrests. Federal courts have not traditionally entertained that kind of lawsuit; indeed, the States cite no precedent for a lawsuit like this.”

Thats crazy it got an 8-1 vote. idk, man. This SCOTUS has been "pro-immigration" in their rulings regarding immigration. If this is the case, the Biden administration has the right to prioritize on who to deport or who can get deferred action but who knows, i can be wrong.

This is actually great news. It means that they won't be going after fathers dropping off their children at school or hanging around city courts to arrest someone for a speeding ticket.

But in all seriousness, this now opens the door for the administration to grant DAPA/Expanded DACA. And if right-wingers don't like it, then pass immigration reform!!!!!

Vox wrote an article analyzing the ruling and from reading that found this:

Finally, Kavanaugh’s opinion also says that “a challenge to an Executive Branch policy that involves both the Executive Branch’s arrest or prosecution priorities and the Executive Branch’s provision of legal benefits or legal status could lead to a different standing analysis.” That language reads like it was tailor-made to allow legal challenges to DACA, a program that allows hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants to live and work in the United States, to move forward.

So there's a chance Roberts and Kavanaugh could save DACA....
