Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed over 100 lawsuits against the Biden administration, challenging policies on immigration, the environment, and more. Many of these lawsuits have been successful, with Paxton claiming an 80% win rate. However, a Texas Tribune analysis found that this number is overstated, with Texas getting the outcome it wanted in about two-thirds of the cases it was involved in.

Immigration Battles

Paxton has been particularly active in challenging the Biden administration’s immigration policies. He has sued to block the administration’s attempts to end the Migrant Protection Protocols, also known as the Remain in Mexico program, and has successfully delayed the implementation of other immigration policies.

Paxton’s lawsuits have had a significant impact on the lives of millions of Americans, many of whom have never set foot in Texas. For example, his lawsuit against the Biden administration’s overtime pay policy has meant that the threshold for mandatory overtime pay remains at $35,568, rather than the $58,656 proposed by the administration.

Conservative Fighter

Paxton has used his record of suing the Biden administration as a key part of his campaign for the Senate. He has portrayed himself as a conservative fighter who is willing to take on the administration to protect the rights of Texans and Americans. While his win rate may be overstated, Paxton’s lawsuits have undoubtedly had a significant impact on the policies of the Biden administration.
