Supreme Court won’t let Biden implement immigration policy

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court won’t allow the Biden administration to implement a policy that prioritizes deportation of people in the U.S. illegally who pose the greatest public safety risk. The court’s order Thursday leaves the policy frozen nationwide. The vote was 5-4 with conservative Justice Amy Coney Barrett joining three liberal justices in saying they would’ve allowed the Biden administration to put in place the guidance. The court says it’ll hear arguments in the case in November. The justices were acting on the administration’s emergency request to the court following conflicting decisions by federal appeals courts. The Department of Homeland Security says immigration officers “will make enforcement decisions on a case-by-case basis.”
