According to a report from The Hill, Gallego is not only seeking to overturn the policy itself but is also pursuing a procedural strategy that could make it easier for Congress to reverse the change.
The dispute revolves around a recent U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) policy affecting how certain immigrants obtain lawful permanent residency.

NATIONAL SECURITY
WHAT’S THE PLAN AND PURPOSE? The Pentagon is saying diddly squat about what thousands of extra US troops are doing in Europe. Since announcing the deployment of thousands of U.S. troops to Europe in support of NATO allies, there has been little to no information available about what troops are actually doing there. Even some within the military seem confused by the lack of transparency.
BORDER SECURITY
IMPORTANT MISSION – NEEDS FIXING – Texas Guard shakeup deepens, two more two-stars out. Less than 72 hours after Gov. Greg Abbott replaced the Texas National Guard’s top general, two more top officials from the agency have suddenly stepped down, signaling a wide-ranging shakeup amid heavy criticism of the governor’s controversial border mission.
MESSAGE TO BIDEN – Exclusive: Chinese carrier sails through Taiwan Strait hours before Biden-Xi call. China sailed an aircraft carrier through the sensitive Taiwan Strait on Friday, shadowed by a U.S. destroyer, a source with direct knowledge of the matter said, just hours before the Chinese and U.S. presidents were due to talk.
TIP OF THE ICEBERG – CHINA SPY THREAT – Navy officer sentenced after lying about his relationship with a Chinese defense firm. The case of Lt. Fan Yang, revealed in court documents and a Justice Department press release, started before Yang became an officer in 2013 and eventually grew to include his family business and wife as money flowed in from employment contracts he signed with Chinese partners.
DISINFORMATION – Contrary to Russian media reports, 3 Tennessee Guardsmen were not killed in Ukraine. The National Guard Bureau is refuting claims that Tennessee National Guard members were killed in Ukraine, rebuking what officials called a “patently false” Russian media report.
Russia is destroying Kharkiv. “Kharkiv is not yet completely destroyed, but we hear constant shelling, constant bombing,” said Natalka Zubar, a 57-year-old I.T. professional who has remained in the city. “It’s a place of constant airborne terror.”
THANK GOD – Survivors emerge from bombed theater in southern Ukraine. Workers were rescuing survivors from a theater in Mariupol that was sheltering hundreds, including children, as Russia increasingly targeted urban centers.
EASTERN EUROPEAN SOLIDARITY – Slovakia ready to provide S-300s and MiG-29s to Ukraine, pending new replacements. Slovakia has agreed to provide its S-300 air defense systems and MiG-29s to Ukraine “immediately” if it can get “proper” replacements in a timely manner, Slovak defense minister Jaroslav Nad told reporters in a joint press conference with U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III.
