Court Grants Temporary Restraining Order in Legal Challenge to Threat to Report Critically Ill Children to ICE

A Tennessee court granted a temporary restraining order to three doctors challenging the state health department's threat to report critically ill children in undocumented families to ICE. The department had warned families enrolled in a public health program to disenroll by June 30 or face reporting, citing a new state law. The doctors argue the action exceeds the department's authority and conflicts with federal law.
