A U.S. appeals court on Thursday granted a temporary stay allowing Texas to keep in place floating buoys that were placed in the middle of the Rio Grande to block migrants from illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border for now.

This, as court proceedings move forward, a court filing showed. In a win for the Biden administration, a federal judge ruled earlier this week that the barrier had to be moved back to an embankment.
