Meanwhile, Kate Huddleston, an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Texas, commented that Attorney General Paxton’s lawsuit “should not be allowed to proceed.”
Huddleston emphasized, “Paxton sought to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election by attempting to baselessly suppress votes; now he is attempting to force the Biden administration to follow Trump’s xenophobic policies. The administration’s pause on deportations is not only lawful but necessary to ensure that families are not separated and people are not returned to danger needlessly while the new administration reviews past actions.”
