Texas
says two more states have joined its coalition suing over the Obama
administration's executive action on immigration, meaning 26 states are
now part of the case.
New Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced Monday that Nevada and Tennessee have officially become part of the coalition.
More than half the states are now fighting the order in a federal court in Brownsville.
Announced
in November, the president's unilateral move is designed to spare
millions of people living illegally in the United States from
deportation. The lawsuit accuses
the White House of "trampling" the Constitution.
A
federal judge heard arguments Jan. 15 but didn't immediately rule on an
injunction the coalition is seeking. It would suspend Obama's action
until the lawsuit makes
its way through the courts.
