Judge strikes down Biden administration program shielding immigrant spouses from deportation
A federal judge on Thursday struck down a Biden administration policy that aimed to ease a path to citizenship for some undocumented immigrants who are married to U.S. citizens. Barker ruled Thursday that the Biden administration had overstepped its authority by implementing the program and had stretched the legal interpretation of relevant immigration law “past its breaking point.” AP AUDIO: Judge strikes down Biden administration program shielding immigrant spouses from deportation AP correspondent Donna Warder reports on more uncertainty for undocumented immigrants married to U.S. citizens. The short-lived Biden administration initiative known as “Keeping Families Together” would have been unlikely to remain in place after Donald Trump took office in January. Barker had placed the immigration initiative on hold after Texas and 15 other states, led by their Republican attorneys general, filed a legal challenge accusing the executive branch of bypassing Congress to help immigrant families for “blatant political purposes.” Republicans argued the initiative created costs for their states and could draw more migrants to the U.S.
