HOUSTON, Texas – Parts of the SB4 law have gone back into effect in Texas following a new court ruling, a decision that has raised concerns among immigrant communities and civil rights organizations. According to legal experts, the measure allows state and local authorities to intervene in matters related to the immigration status of individuals suspected of being in the United States unlawfully, while the litigation over the law's constitutionality continues in the courts. "This new ruling opens the door for state and local authorities to detain individuals under suspicion of having illegal presence in the United States," explained immigration attorney Emily Benítez.
