For more than two years, advocates have decried Texas SB 4, a law that would bring all Texans and those suspected of being undocumented under the permanent threat of immediate detention and deportation by the state, should they be suspected of illegal entry or reentry into Texas. By Governor Abbott’s admission, Texas SB 4 represents an unheard-of state usurpation of federal law, violating constitutional principles and norms that govern how states interact with the federal government.
