Texas AG Ken Paxton Signals Lawsuit If Obama’s DACA Amnesty Does Not End

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has signaled that he may potentially bring another suit against the federal government if former President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program is extended for illegal aliens.
Paxton’s original lawsuit against President Trump’s administration mandated that a decision on DACA — which has shielded nearly 800,000 illegal aliens from deportation — be announced by September 5, 2017. The suit prompted Attorney General Jeff Sessions to announce in September 2017 that DACA would officially be winded down and ended by March 5, 2018.
Now, though, since a California court struck down the Trump administration’s ending of DACA, the temporary amnesty program has been reinstated and therefore if the U.S. Supreme Court does not take up the issue before the March 5 deadline, the program would be extended past the deadline.
