Case Summary

On May 1, 2018, Texas, Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, South Carolina, and West Virginia brought actions for declaratory and injunctive relief against the United States and various federal immigration officials in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. The states, represented by the Office of the Attorney General of Texas, claimed that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (“DACA”) program, created by a 2012 executive action by the Obama Administration, violate…

On May 1, 2018, Texas, Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, South Carolina, and West Virginia brought actions for declaratory and injunctive relief against the United States and various federal immigration officials in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. The states, represented by the Office of the Attorney General of Texas, claimed that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (“DACA”) program, created by a 2012 executive action by the Obama Administration, violated the Administrative Procedure Act (“APA”) and the Take Care Clause of the Constitution. The states claimed that the DACA program granted lawful presence to millions of unlawfully present immigrants without congressional authorization. They sought to enjoin the government from issuing or renewing any DACA permits in the future and a declaration that DACA violated the Take Care Clause and the APA. The case was assigned to District Judge Andrew S. Hanen.

The states moved for a preliminary injunction on May 2, 2018. On May 8, DACA recipients and the state of New Jersey filed a motion to intervene as defendants, which Judge Hanen granted on May 15. The defendants then moved to dismiss the case on May 29 without prejudice or to transfer the case to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, where a similar case was being litigated. Judge Hanen denied the motions on May 30.

The states filed an amended complaint on June 25, 2018, which added the state of Kansas and two governors as plaintiffs. On July 5, the defendants moved to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

On August 31, Judge Hanen denied the states’ May 2nd request for a preliminary injunction. The court found that the states had shown a likelihood of success on the merits of their claim related to both the procedural and substantive aspects of the APA. However, the court denied the injunction for three reasons: the states had delayed seeking this relief for years; the balance of private interests fell in favor of denying the relief; and implementing the relief was contrary to the public interest. The court did not rule on whether the DACA program violated the Constitution’s Take Care Clause. 328 F. Supp. 3d 662, 740 (S.D. Tex. 2018).

On February 4, 2019, the states moved for summary judgment. In their response, the defendants agreed that the plaintiffs are entitled to summary judgment on their substantive APA claim, but opposed summary judgment on the other claims.

On August 28, 2019, the defendant-intervenor State of New Jersey moved to stay the case until the Supreme Court ruled on cases involving the rescinding of DACA (Regents of Univ. of California v. DHS, NAACP v. Trump, and Wolf v. Vidal). These cases had oral arguments before the Supreme court on November 19, 2019, which touched on issues related to DACA’s issuance. Judge Hanen granted the stay on November 22, 2019, finding that the Supreme Court’s opinion in those related cases could potentially resolve this case. 2019 WL 6255351.

On June 18, 2020, the Supreme Court issued its opinion in Regents of Univ. of California v. DHS, holding that the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”)’s 2017 order rescinding DACA was arbitrary and capricious, in violation of the APA. Judge Hanen ordered the parties to compile a joint status report on how this would affect the case by July 24.

On August 21, 2020, Judge Hanen denied the states’ motion for summary judgment that was filed on February 4, 2019 without prejudice, holding that the Regents decision may impact the legal issues in this case. 2020 WL 6440497.

The states filed a new motion for summary judgment on October 9, 2020. The defendant-intervenors also moved for summary judgment on November 6, claiming that the states lacked standing. The court heard oral arguments for these motions on December 22.

On the day of his inauguration (January 20, 2021), President Biden signed a memorandum directing DHS and the Attorney General "to preserve and fortify DACA." Two days later, defendant-intervenors notified the court that the federal defendants would shift their position on the case in light of President Biden’s memorandum. They requested a status conference to discuss how President Biden’s memorandum would impact the substantive and procedural aspects of this litigation. Considering both the Presidential memorandum and that the House of Representatives passed the American Dream and Promise Act, an act to create a pathway to citizenship for DACA recipients, Judge Hanen granted the defendant-intervenors’ request on March 19, 2021. The parties discussed the possible impact of the American Dream and Promise Act on the litigation at a status conference on March 30, 2021.

On July 16, 2021, Judge Hanen granted the states’ motion for summary judgment that was filed on October 9, 2020. 2021 WL 3025857. The court held that DHS violated the APA because it did not undergo the required notice and comment rulemaking procedures when it created DACA, and thus DACA was not a legally binding policy. Additionally, Judge Hanen held that Congress did not grant DHS the statutory authority to enact DACA, so even if DHS satisfied the procedural APA requirements, the agency action would still violate the substantive provisions of the APA. Also on July 16, Judge Hanen issued a permanent injunction vacating the DACA program, prohibiting its continued operation, and remanding the issue to DHS for further consideration. 2021 WL 3022434. The court ruled that DHS could accept new and renewal DACA applications, but could not approve new applications without further judicial authorization. Because of the widespread reliance on DACA, Judge Hanen temporarily stayed the injunction for preexisting DACA recipients and prohibited law enforcement from taking immigration, deportation, or criminal action against current DACA recipients. 

The defendants appealed the court's decision on September 10, 2021. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit heard oral arguments on July 6, 2022. Throughout the appeal, DHS was engaged in rulemaking with the stated intent to “preserve and fortify DHS’s DACA policy.” The agency promulgated a final rule on August 30, 2022. Writing for the Fifth Circuit on October 5, 2022, Chief Judge Priscilla Richman affirmed the lower court’s decision and ordered the defendants to pay the cost of the appeal. Chief Judge Richman remanded to the district court to review the new DHS rule (promulgated in August 2022) and the administrative record, which had not been available to the appellate court for review. Chief Judge Richman extended the stay of the injunction for existing DACA recipients.

Upon remand to the district court, Judge Hanen extended the injunction to cover the August 2022 DHS rule on October 14, 2022. He again enjoined DHS from granting DACA status for new applicants, but permitted the agency to accept new applications and to accept and grant renewal applications.

The states filed a supplemental complaint in the district court on January 31, 2023, which alleged that the August 2022 DHS rule contained the same constitutional and APA violations as the DACA memorandum. The complaint sought declaratory relief and to enjoin DHS from approving renewal DACA applications. The states and defendants filed cross-motions for summary judgment on January 31 and March 2, and Judge Hanen heard oral arguments on June 1.

On September 13, 2023, the court granted summary judgment for the states and extended the injunction to DHS’s August 2022 rule. Judge Hanen held that, like the DACA memorandum, the August 2022 rule exceeded DHS’s statutory authority and violated the APA. The court also declined to sever the legally problematic part of the DHS rule (the benefits provision) because DHS would not have adopted DACA without the benefits provision and the final rule would not function sensibly without it. Judge Hanen reiterated that neither the order nor the injunction required DHS or the Department of Justice to deport or take criminal action against DACA recipients or applicants. 

The defendants and defendant-intervenors appealed the district court’s decision on November 9, 2023. As of November 21, 2023, the case is ongoing.
