The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that Texas could enforce an immigration law that would allow local officials to arrest migrants suspected of entering the U.S. illegally.
This means the law can go into effect as litigation occurs in lower courts, according to CNN.
The court rejected an emergency request from the Biden Administration that claimed states don't have authority over immigration and that it's strictly a federal issue.
The law in question is Senate Bill 4 and it allows police to arrest migrants who illegally cross the border and give judges authority to deport them back to Mexico.

The ruling was 6-3 in favor of Texas. Rob will be sad.
