SCOTUS Rules Razor Wire Can Be Cut at Border

syndication-el-paso-times-39

(Washington, DC) – The US Supreme Court has ruled the federal government can cut down razor wire set up by Texas along the southern border. This came in response to the Biden administration’s request to throw out a lower court ruling. Now, federal officials can remove the concertina wire fencing and other physical barriers, while helping migrants cross the Rio Grande into the US.

It was a 5-4 decision. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barret joined the court’s three liberal justices in the ruling. It comes amid a record number of interactions between US border agents and migrants. Here in New York City, busloads of migrants continue to arrive from southern border states like Texas. The Adams administration has ordered budget cuts, chiefly in response to the spiraling costs associated with caring for and housing the newly-arrived migrants.
