Notice of Subsequent Authority

i

1

Proposed Intervenor-Defendants submit this Notice to inform the Court of a pertinent

2

case the Supreme Court decided after Intervenor-Defendants submitted their Motion to Intervene

3

and Proposed Opposition to the Motion for Preliminary Injunction. ECF No. 73-2. In Murphy v.

4
Nat’l Collegiate Athletic Ass’n, 2018 WL 2186168 (U.S. May 14, 2018) (attached for the Court’s
5
6

convenience), the Supreme Court struck down a federal statute that prohibited States from

7

repealing their sports gambling laws. The Court held that Congress may not “issue direct orders

8

to the governments of the States,” slip op. at 15, and that this principle applies to orders either

9

“to enact or refrain from enacting state law,” slip op. at 19 (emphasis added); see id. at 18-19

10

(rejecting “empty” distinction between prohibitions and affirmative commands).

11
12

Murphy supports Proposed Intervenor-Defendants’ arguments that (1) Congress cannot

13

prohibit States from limiting their participation in immigration enforcement, whether expressly

14

or impliedly, see PI Opp., ECF No. 73-2, at 6-12; (2) the United States’ preemption theories fail

15

despite being phrased as prohibitions, rather than commands, ECF No. 73-2, at 8 & n.8, 12; (3)

16

Congress cannot require States to delegate decisions about immigration enforcement to line

17
officers, ECF No. 73-2, at 9; and (4) Reno v. Condon, 528 U.S. 141 (2000), did not recognize
18
19

any Tenth Amendment exception for direct orders to States to help administer federal programs

20

by sharing information, compare ECF No. 73-2, at 10 n.10, with Murphy, slip op. at 20

21

(discussing Condon).
