The Supreme Court on Jan. 22, 2024 allowed the Biden administration tp remove razor wire barriers that Texas erected along a 29=mile stretch of the Rio Grande meant to block migrants at the Southwest bordwer, the USA Today website reports today (Jan. 23, 2024).
The 5--4 ruling was a temporary victory for the Biden administration, giving the federal government t upper hand in its fight with Texas while the underlying lawsuit continues.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. a Republican. authorized the installation of the razor wire as part of a broader effort to deter migrants from crossing the Mexico border. That included a 29--mile stretch of the riverbank in Eagle Pass, much of which is private land.
