In an order<\/a> issued by the Federal District Court for the Southern District of Texas last week, Judge Andrew S. Hanen reprimanded the Department of Justice (DOJ) for intentionally deceiving the court in the Texas v. United States<\/i> case<\/a>.<\/p>\n The case, brought by the State of Texas and 25 other states, challenges the Obama Administration\u2019s unilateral expansion<\/a> of its Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and creation of the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) program. Together, the programs would allow millions of illegal aliens living in the United States to escape enforcement of immigration law.<\/p>\n
