The Biden administration filed a lawsuit against the state of Texas on Friday, asking a federal judge to block Governor Greg Abbott’s order that state troopers pull over drivers transporting migrants who pose a risk of carrying COVID-19 as a way to prevent the spread of the virus.
The Department of Justice claims that Abbott’s executive order GA-37, issued last Wednesday, violates the federal supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution and “causes injury to the US and to individuals whom the US is charged to protect, jeopardizing the health and safety of noncitizens in federal custody, risking the safety of federal law enforcement officers and their families, and exacerbating the spread of [Covid-19] in our communities,” as argued in the lawsuit, which was filed on Friday in the Western District of Texas in El Paso. “In our constitutional system, a State has no right to regulate the federal government’s operations,” the lawsuit states.
