HOUSTON - Impeached Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas campaigning against the Lone Star State's controversial anti-illegal immigration law in, of all places, Guatemala.

Fifth Circuit Court to revisit SB4
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas condemns Texas' SB four as unconstitutional while campaigning against it in Guatemala, raising questions about the state's approach to immigration amid federal inaction.
Just to let everyone know - because it has been confusing - enforcement of SB-4 is on hold - pending what will likely be a Supreme Court ruling.
In another note the Catholic Bishop in El Paso has jumped into the fray calling border enforcement "racist" and the effort to limit illegal crossings "part of a quote "broader, brutal, historical project in Texas to criminalize people who migrate."
