Human rights activists and hundreds of protesters, with a DPD escort, marched down Commerce in Dallas on Sunday to protest against Texas Senate Bill 4 (SB4), a controversial immigration law. The law, which is currently on hold, is being deliberated by the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court. The protests, organized by multiple immigrant advocate organizations, aim for the permanent dismissal of SB4, labeling it as a 'hateful, cruel and racist law.' The law has sparked significant concern among Dallas residents, far from the Texas border, about its implications for local and state immigration enforcement. The situation has been further complicated by rapid-fire court orders, causing alarm over the future of SB4.
