NEW: A federal court judge in Texas has granted a preliminary injunction to block the Biden administration's 100-day deportation pause.
The judge's previous pause was expiring today and his order now means the moratorium is on hold as the case moves forward.

The judge does not buy the Biden administration's arguments for the 100-day pause.

“This ruling is legally wrong and will seriously harm families and communities around the country."

The ruling does not impact the Biden administration's recently released priorities for immigration enforcement, which forces officers to focus on a specific set of people, as opposed to nearly every undocumented immigrant like it was under Trump.
Curious to see if legal experts expect the Biden administration to be able to keep the deportation moratorium alive after this.
Government would need 5th Circuit or Supreme Court to rule in its favor, which seems...unlikely (to me).
