Senate Bill 4 was signed into law by Republican Governor Greg Abbott last December as a drastic measure to end what he called"an invasion." The bill allows state authorities to arrest anyone suspected of being an undocumented immigrant in Texas territory. Through its Foreign Ministry, Mexico condemned the Supreme Court’s decision to lift its hold on the law and warned of human rights violations and racial profiling.

Under pressure from the US, the Mexican government has done its best to contain migration flows. Historically a transit country, Mexico has struggled to keep migrants within its borders.Meanwhile, migration flows continue to rise. The Mexican Commission for Refugee Aid said Tuesday that thousands of migrants, mainly from Haiti and Honduras, had camped outside their offices waiting for help in the south of the country.
