Quote:
Texas and six other states filed a lawsuit against the federal government on Tuesday, calling for an end to the DACA program, which provides legal status to hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants who came to the U.S. as children.

Why it matters: The lawsuit is technically against the Trump administration, but President Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions have already tried to end the DACA program, only to be met with nation-wide injunctions. Even if the judge rules in Texas' favor, those injunctions remain in place — only the Supreme Court can change things now, according to Leon Fresco, immigration attorney and former Deputy Assistant A.G. at DOJ’s Office of Immigration Litigation .



The players: Texas, Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, South Carolina and West Virginia.

The state of play:

The two injunctions by California and New York judges have allowed DACA-recipients to continue renewing their status.
At the end of last month, a third federal judge from D.C. ruled that if the Department of Homeland Security can not offer a better reason for terminating DACA, they will have to begin accepting new applications for the legal protections as well — effectively fully reinstating DACA.

No need to. Freak out when DACA reaches the Supreme Court, not now.
