Immigrant advocates called the agreement 'collusion' and had asked the justices to reinstate a Biden-era policy that gave immigration judges discretion, The NY Times wrote, and Bloomberg reported that the court left in force what opponents call a 'collusive' settlement struck by President Donald Trump's administration and Texas to cut off an avenue for pausing some deportations.
