U.S. Court To Hear Deportation Policy Case

UNITED STATES – The U.S. Supreme Court is taking up a dispute over a blocked Biden administration policy that would prioritize the deportation of people in the country illegally who pose the greatest public safety risk.

Republican-led states sued and won a nationwide court order that is meant to limit immigration officers’ discretion in deciding whom to deport.

The justices began hearing arguments in the case yesterday.

It’s the latest example of a republican litigation strategy that has succeeded in slowing Biden administration initiatives by going to GOP-friendly courts.
