AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Civil rights organizations on Tuesday filed a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of a new Texas law that would allow police to arrest migrants who cross the border illegally and permit local judges to order them to leave the country.
The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Austin, argues that the measure that is set to take effect in March is unconstitutional because the federal government has sole authority over immigration.
The American Civil Liberties Union, its Texas branch, and the Texas Civil Rights Project sued less than 24 hours after Republican Gov. Greg Abbott signed the measure during a ceremony on the U.S.-Mexico border in Brownsville.

SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL The feds aren't doing their job to secure the border so what's a state to do? They have to take it among themselves to do the federal government's job. I don't have a problem with those seeking a better life in the USA; just do it legally and we (well, most) will welcome you with open arms.
