Good morning from the federal courthouse in Austin, where a coalition of immigrant-rights groups will try to convince a federal judge that a Texas law authorizing a judge or magistrate to order a migrant to return to Mexico, regardless of their nationality, is unconstitutional.

HAPPENING NOW: Civil rights groups give press conference ahead of preliminary injunction hearing later this morning on #SB4, the new Texas law that empowers state officials to deport people who are suspected of crossing the border illegally + goes into effect on March 5 #txlege

Happening Now! ⁦Texas Civil Rights Project⁩ is at federal court in #ATX with ACLU of Texas⁩ ⁦ACLU⁩ to ask a federal judge to not allow #SB4 to take effect March 5. SB4 is a racist attempt by Gov Abbott to hunt/imprison migrants for political points. Follow TCRP for updates!

LIVE from the TX Capitol this AM — partners + allies gather around ILRC Policy Strategist + Atty Jennefer Canales-Peláez discussing harms of #SB4 “When state officials pursuing personal platforms of hate continue to fight against the interests of Texans, WE WILL NOT BACK DOWN!”

Texas Civil Rights Project “Black + brown Texans will be more vulnerable to abuses like racial profiling, harassment + intimidation as our government instigates xenophobic + white supremacist violence,” said Elyse McMahon, of Las Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center, of #SB4.

Ahead of today’s federal court hearing, we joined Immigrant Legal Resource Center Grassroots Leadership Texas Civil Rights Project American Gateways + to demand an immediate a halt on #SB4, Texas’ latest deportation bill. “We are here to protect our communities from the unconstitutional overreach of Texas” said Elyse.

Today, we are unveiling Critical Action Needed: Calling for Presidential Leadership on Immigrant Justice that once again lays out clear solutions that the administration can and must act on before his term ends. It’s surreal that we’re making these requests yet again. /🧵

UPDATE: Federal court temporarily blocks Texas #SB4 anti-immigrant law. As of now, the law will not take effect on March 5th.

Brother Rob from Grassroots Leadership bringing the business as usual. Mentioned Vincent Schiraldi’s new book Mass Supervision and how a prison by any other name is still a prison

As both the Democratic and Republican parties continue to shift right on immigration, it’s up to us all to continue fighting for an immigration system that does NOT rely on mass detention and deportation. Our communities need dignity, restoration, and repair!
