Attorney General Ken Paxton today filed a complaint
and motion for temporary restraining order
in the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas,
asking the Court to immediately halt
the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) freeze
on deportations of illegal aliens.
On its first day in office,
the Biden Administration cast aside congressionally enacted immigration laws
and suspended the removal of illegal aliens
whose removal is compelled by those very laws.
The move by the Biden Administration violates the U.S. Constitution
federal immigration and administrative law,
and a contractual agreement between Texas and DHS.
Last night, Attorney General Paxton issued a letter
warning that the Administration’s actions
resulted in an abdication of DHS’s obligation to enforce
federal immigration law, which would seriously
and irreparably harm Texas and its citizens.
“...In one of its first of dozens of steps that harm Texas
and the nation as a whole,
the Biden administration directed DHS
to violate federal immigration law
and breach an agreement to consult and cooperate with Texas
on that law.
Our state defends the largest section of the southern border
in the nation.
Failure to properly enforce the law will directly
and immediately endanger our citizens and law enforcement personnel...”
said Attorney General Paxton.
“...DHS itself has previously acknowledged that such a freeze
on deportations
will cause concrete injuries to Texas.
I am confident that these unlawful and perilous actions
cannot stand.
The rule of law and security of our citizens must prevail....”
