A federal appeals court has frozen Texas’ controversial immigration law, SB4, which would allow state officials to detain and prosecute unauthorised migrants.
Mexico has refused to accept any migrants deported by Texas under the new law. The Biden administration has challenged SB4, calling it unconstitutional.
The decision to freeze the law marks a significant shift in how immigration enforcement is handled, as courts have previously ruled that only the federal government can enforce the country’s immigration laws.
The Mexican foreign ministry said it would join the legal effort by US President Joe Biden’s government to block SB4.
