Fox 7: Coale Predicts Supreme Court Intervention in Latest Legal Border Lawsuit
The U.S.
Supreme Court may eventually have to resolve the latest federal lawsuit the
Biden Administration filed against the state of Texas, according to LPHS
attorney David
Coale. The legal action, initiated on Wednesday, is an attempt by
President Biden to strike down Senate Bill 4, passed by the Texas Legislature
and set to take effect this March.
"This one
is the clearest challenge to the U.S. Supreme Court's reasoning in the United
States v. Arizona that we've seen in a while," Coale said in a Fox
7-Austin interview. “Is it something that states have always been able to do or
is it part of the limited set of powers that were given exclusively to the
federal government in the Constitution. That's an interesting question. I mean,
it also is a wrinkle that isn't in the Supreme Court guidance we have on this,”
he says.
