Supreme Court Pauses Implementation of Immigration Law in Texas

Supreme Court Pauses , Implementation of Immigration Law in Texas.

On March 4, the Supreme Court temporarily stopped the state from enforcing a law that gives Texas the authority to arrest and detain those it suspects to be illegal immigrants.

.

The administrative hold, issued by Justice Samuel Alito, will keep the law from going into effect until March 13, CNN reports.

.

It was previously scheduled to go into effect on March 10.

An emergency application was filed by immigration groups and the White House in an attempt to block the law.

.

According to the Justice Department, the law would "profoundly" impact the parameters that have "existed between the United States and the States in the context of immigration for almost 150 years.".

Immigration advocates say that Senate Bill 4 will increase instances of racial profiling, detentions and attempted deportations.

.

A federal judge in Austin blocked Texas from implementing the law last week.

.

If allowed to proceed, SB 4 could open the door to each state passing its own version of immigration laws, Judge David Alan Ezra, via statement.

CNN reports that "Latinos represent 40% of the population" in Texas.
