A Texas Federal Judge on Thursday, ruled Against a Biden Administration Program for Undocumented Immigrants married to U.S. Citizens.
The Ruling means roughly 500,000 People who lack Legal Status, but are Married to a Citizen, will have a Longer Process to get a Green Card. The Program, called "Keeping Families Together", would also have Benefited Stepchildren of U.S. Citizens by Creating an Easier path to Citizenship.
The Biden Administration created the Program in June, after Pressure from Immigrant Rights Groups.
Texas and 15 other States Sued, saying the Program was Harmful to them, and would Encourage more Unauthorized Migration.
U.S. District Court Judge J. Campbell Barker put the Program on Temporary Hold in August Pending the Lawsuit.
Barker said in His Ruling Thursday, that the Administration doesn't have the Authority to Create such a Program.
He sided with Texas, which Argued that the Program would have Burdened it with Costs associated with Education and Health Care.
Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey said in a Post on X that the Ruling was a "HUGE win for the rule of law." Missouri was One of the States that Sued.
