The Justice Department is asking a federal judge to order Gov. Greg Abbott to remove a floating barrier that Texas placed in the Rio Grande River while a lawsuit on the matter is litigated.<\/p>\n

In a 25-page filing Wednesday, federal prosecutors said that a preliminary injunction was needed to prevent \u00ab\u00a0irreparable harm\u00a0\u00bb to foreign relations, public safety and navigation.<\/p>\n

They also asked that the judge block Texas, which installed the barrier to deter migrants from crossing into the United States, from building additional unauthorized structures while the case is considered.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo relief granted at the end of this case would make up for the continuing threat to navigation and public safety that the Floating Barrier will impose while the parties litigate the merits,\u201d prosecutors wrote.<\/p>\n

The request comes after the Justice Department filed a civil suit on Monday alleging that Abbott violated federal law by installing the barrier.<\/p>\n

In the new filing, the Justice Department maintained that the case involves a \u201cstraightforward violation\u201d of the Rivers and Harbors Act, which bars the unauthorized creation of any obstruction to the navigable capacity of the nation\u2019s waters, an argument that Abbott has rejected as inapplicable to his state\u2019s action.<\/p>\n

They further argued that the river is used by several federal agencies and obstructing it \u201cposes risks to health and public safety\u201d by impeding travel across it and \u201cforcing vessels to maneuver around it to avoid collision or entanglement.\u201d<\/p>\n

Federal prosecutors also alleged that the barrier is harmful to U.S.-Mexico relations, adding that Mexico \u00ab\u00a0has raised humanitarian concerns regarding possible loss of life to persons swimming in the Rio Grande.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

NBC News has reached out to the Mexican Embassy in Washington for comment.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Abbott, Renae Eze, said that Texas had no plans of backing down.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will fight this case all the way to the United States Supreme Court to protect Texas\u2019 constitutional authority to deny illegal entry into our state,\u201d Eze said in a statement Wednesday after the Justice Department\u2019s request for an injunction.<\/p>\n
