5月29日（路透社）—— 联邦上诉法院周五为得州当局实施一项关键法律扫清了障碍，该法律允许州政府官员逮捕并驱逐涉嫌非法越境美墨边境的人员。
由两名法官支持、一名法官反对的新奥尔良第五巡回上诉法院合议庭在一项命令中，暂停了联邦法官5月14日在一场集体诉讼中签发的禁令。该集体诉讼由民权倡导者代表数千名可能受该法律条款约束的民众提起。

位于奥斯汀的美国地区法官戴维·埃兹拉此前签发了该禁令，理由是该州法律不当挑战了联邦政府长期以来掌控移民、入籍和驱逐的权力。
共和党籍得州总检察长肯·帕克斯顿——他目前正在竞选美国参议院席位——迅速提起上诉，促成了周五的这项裁决。
代表原告的团体——美国公民自由联盟、其得州分支以及得州民权项目——在联合声明中称周五的裁决令人失望，并表示他们“将继续对抗这项令人憎恶且公然违法的法律”。

帕克斯顿的办公室未回应置评请求。
这场诉讼旨在阻止这项2023年法律的部分条款生效。此前，上诉法院在4月推翻了民主党总统乔·拜登政府时期签发的一项早期禁令，该禁令曾阻止这项由共和党支持的SB4法案实施。
共和党籍总统唐纳德·特朗普政府撤销了拜登政府提起的挑战该法律的诉讼。此前也提起诉讼的移民权利团体继续推进诉讼，但第五巡回法院以10票对7票裁定这些组织没有法律资格提起诉讼。
新的由美国公民自由联盟支持的诉讼则通过代表可能受该法律四项关键条款约束的非公民提起诉讼，试图解决这一资格问题。
这些条款包括：将在被驱逐后再次进入美国定为州级犯罪，即便当事人获得了联邦许可或此后取得了绿卡；以及赋予得州治安法官签发驱逐令的权力。

May 29 (Reuters) – A federal appeals court on Friday cleared the way for Texas authorities to enforce key parts of a law that would allow state officials to arrest and deport people suspected of having illegally crossed the U.S.-Mexico border.
A 2-1 panel of the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in an order put on hold, opens new tab an injunction a federal judge had issued on May 14 in a class-action lawsuit filed by civil rights advocates on behalf of thousands of people who could be subject to the law’s provisions.

Austin-based U.S. District Judge David Ezra had issued the injunction after concluding the state law improperly challenged the federal government’s long-held power to control immigration, naturalization and deportations.
Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who is running for a seat in the U.S. Senate, quickly appealed, leading to Friday’s order.
The groups representing the plaintiffs — the American Civil Liberties Union, its Texas affiliate and the Texas Civil Rights Project — in a joint statement called Friday’s ruling disappointing and said they “will continue to fight against this abhorrent and blatantly illegal law.”

Paxton’s office did not respond to a request for comment.
The lawsuit had been filed to prevent parts of the 2023 law from taking effect, after the appeals court in April overturned an earlier injunction issued during Democratic President Joe Biden’s administration that had prevented the Republican-backed measure known as SB 4 from being enforced.
Republican President Donald Trump’s administration had dropped a case the Biden administration brought challenging the law. Immigrant-rights groups that had also sued pressed on, but the 5th Circuit on a 10-7 vote concluded the organizations lacked legal standing to pursue their case.
The new ACLU-backed lawsuit sought to address that issue by instead suing on behalf of non-citizens who could be subject to four key provisions of the law.
Those provisions include ones that make it a state crime for someone to reenter the U.S. after deportation, even if they have federal permission to do so or have since obtained a green card, and that give magistrate judges in Texas the power to issue deportation orders.
