Biden administration drops plan for ICE deportation pause after legal defeat
Fox News
The Biden administration has dropped its effort to impose a 100-day moratorium on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportations after a legal effort from Texas blocked the Biden campaign promise from taking place -- with the administration saying the time for it to go into effect has now passed.
Texas immediately sued, eventually winning the legal battle when a federal judge placed an indefinite block on the policy. "The 100-day period during which DHS would have paused the execution of certain final removal orders has now otherwise expired and would no longer be in effect under the terms of the memorandum," a DHS statement said. "DHS does not intend to extend or reinstate a policy requiring a pause on the execution of final orders of removal for any noncitizens."More Related News
