A group of 16 Republican states have filed a lawsuit against the Joe Biden administration to block a new family law plan that could legalize about half a million undocumented immigrants.
Applications opened this week for the Keeping Families Together plan, which allows undocumented immigrants who are married to U.S. citizens and have lived in the United States for 10 or more years without incident to become lawful residents without having to leave and reenter the country.
In a statement, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said the plan “violates the Constitution and actively worsens the illegal immigration disaster that is harming Texas and the nation.”
