May 26, 2015Federal court blocks Obama’s immigration plan
A federal appeals court refused Tuesday to allow President Obama’s program to protect millions of undocumented immigrants from deportation from going into effect.
The decision by a three-judge panel of the New Orleans-based 5th Circuit Court of Appeals adds another delay for the undocumented immigrants who could have been protected under the president’s order. A federal judge blocked Obama’s plan in February, hours before many of them were to start applying for the new program. USA Today
