Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick pleaded with the U.S. Supreme Court on March 18 and said he hopes the high court will rule in favor of a state immigration enforcement law that was placed on hold earlier this month.
Mr. Patrick said that the Supreme Court will decide soon whether the law, SB4, will go into effect as lower courts hear the case. Earlier this month, Justice Samuel Alito placed two temporary holds on the law, which was scheduled to go into effect this month.
