Texas granted emergency stay to keep Rio Grande barriers amidst border policy debate
Texas has been granted an emergency stay by a U.S. Appeals Court, allowing the state to maintain barriers in the Rio Grande amidst an ongoing border policy debate. The decision comes in response to a federal judge's order requiring Texas to relocate the barriers to the riverbank by September 15th. However, the state is prohibited from adding any additional structures until the Department of Justice's lawsuit is resolved.
