Divided US appeals court blocks enforcement of Texas state immigration law

By Nate Raymond (Reuters) -Texas authorities may not enforce a Republican-backed state law that would let them arrest and prosecute people suspected of illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, a divided federal appeals court ruled late Thursday. A 2-1 panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld an injunction that blocked enforcement of the disputed law, which former Democratic President Joe Biden's administration had gone to court to challenge. Republican President Donald Trump's administration dropped the federal government's case, but Texas's law known as SB4 had continued to be challenged by, among others, the immigrant rights group Las Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center, which argued federal law preempted the state's. The law, which Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed in December 2023, would make it a state crime to illegally enter or re-enter Texas from a foreign country and would empower state judges to order that violators leave the United States, with prison sentences up to 20 years for those who refuse to comply. U.S. Circuit Judge Priscilla Richman, writing for the New Orleans-based court's majority, said that for nearly 150 years, the U.S. Supreme Court has recognized that the power to control immigration was exclusively a federal power. Relying on a 2012 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down parts of an Arizona immigration law, she said the Texas law, if allowed to be enforced by the Texas Department of Public Safety, would interfere with the federal government's ability to enforce complex U.S. immigration laws. The state did not respond to requests for comment. The ruling upheld a lower-court judge's February 2024 preliminary injunction. The U.S. Supreme Court a month later briefly allowed the law to take effect, but the 5th Circuit within hours halted it pending further review. The opinion by Richman, an appointee of Republican President George W. Bush, was joined by U.S. Circuit Judge Irma Carrillo Ramirez, a Biden appointee. U.S. Circuit Judge Andrew Oldham, a Trump appointee, dissented. He said the majority treated as irrelevant that Trump has been encouraging states to aid his administration's efforts to ramp up immigration enforcement. "It is a sad day for the millions of Americans who are concerned about illegal immigration and who voiced those concerns at ballot boxes across Texas and the Nation," Oldham wrote. Cody Wofsy, a lawyer for the plaintiffs at the American Civil Liberties Union, in a statement welcomed the ruling, saying state immigration laws like the one Texas adopted have been repeatedly rejected by courts and "are deeply harmful to our communities.'

Oil drops for second day as traders brace for another OPEC+ hike

(Bloomberg) — Oil fell for a second day in the lead up to an OPEC+ meeting that's expected to deliver another substantial production hike, while President Donald Trump's latest tariff threats dented wider risk appetite. Foreign Buyers Swoop on Cape Town Homes, Pricing Out Locals Massachusetts to Follow NYC in Making Landlords Pay Broker Fees NYC Commutes Resume After Midtown Bus Terminal Crash Chaos Struggling Downtowns Are Looking to Lure New Crowds What Gothenburg Got Out of Congestion Pricing West Texas Intermediate declined below $67 a barrel after edging 0.7% lower on Thursday. The cartel has begun discussing a fourth, 411,000 barrel-a-day increase for August ahead of a video-conference this weekend, delegates said. The meeting has now been moved from Sunday to Saturday. Global trade policy was also in focus, pushing equities in Asia and elsewhere lower. Trump said his administration will begin sending out letters to trading partners to set unilateral tariff rates ahead of a July 9 deadline, and that the new levies will come into force in August. Oil markets are likely to see thinner trading on Friday because of the Fourth of July holiday in the US. Crude has been volatile in recent weeks, roiled by fears that the Israel-Iran war would hamper supply. While markets have since calmed, apprehension lingers over negotiations with Iran, the US-led trade talks and evolving policy by OPEC+. 'The absolute fundamentals of the market are taking over,' said Susan Bell, senior vice president of downstream research at Rystad Energy in Calgary. 'The risk premiums have gone out of the market, and the fundamentals are quite weak.' On Iran, Washington plans to restart nuclear talks, and US Middle East envoy Steven Witkoff is set to meet Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Oslo next week, Axios reported. Meanwhile, the US took fresh steps to restrict the trade of the Islamic Republic's oil, keeping up pressure on Tehran. In Canada, a wildfire emerged in the Fort McMurray area, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) from a major oil-sands production site. Production from Alberta fell to the lowest in two years in May, combining with falling output from Mexico and a ban on Venezuelan flows to strengthen heavy crude prices. —With assistance from Yongchang Chin, Rob Verdonck and Nicholas Lua.

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea celebrates Fourth of July with parade, family fun and fireworks

Steeped in patriotism and small town charm, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea celebrates the nation's independence with its annual Fourth of July Parade and Family Fun Day. The day long celebration features a festive parade, family-friendly activities and a beachfront fireworks display. "It's all about independence, freedom and enjoying our community," resident Sharon Pidgeon said as she watched the parade. The Aufiero family were celebrating their child's first Fourth of July, hoping to impart patriotism at a young age. "To know America is the greatest country and celebrate America and just enjoy this day," Paige Aufiero said. Some showed up dressed in patriotic threads to celebrate America's birthday. "I'm a very big fan of the Fourth of July. We always have a big party. We have to dress the part. We're very proud to be from this country and we're psyched each year," Jill Paden said. The Padens said they've been going to the Lauderdale-by-the-Sea event for years. "We're very proud to be Americans. We're proud to be from this country and I'm proud of our ability to protest, and stand up for what we believe in," Brett Paden said. While Americans are divided on many issues, everyone at the event said the day was about celebrating. "Today is about the birth of America, it's not about politics. Let's just leave all that aside and just celebrate that we're free," resident Cheri Palmer said.
