This means that there are now freezes on removals under the Alien Enemies Act in the Northern, Southern, and Western Districts of Texas (and the District of Colorado and the Southern District of New York, etc.)
There’s still bad case-specific behavior. But mass, summary removals as a policy is off.

It went SO BAD for ICE that not only did the judge order release for the people suing, without prompting he restricted the use of the Alien Enemies Act in west Texas.
