“The conservative-majority court, with three liberal justices dissenting, rejected an emergency request made by the Biden administration, which said states have no authority to legislate on immigration, an issue the federal government has sole authority over.”
The Biden administration is full of hypcrites when it comes to federal immigration enforcement efforts. They have not a single problem with “sanctuary city” laws thwarting the efforts of ICE to detain and deport illegals. They have no leg to stand on objecting to states enforcing immigration laws Biden refuses to enforce.
As the dissent in a similar Arizona case put it a few years ago, the Federal courts ought not to give the Executive carte blanche to break or ignore the law using the excuse of Federal pre-emption.

Excellent point.
