Besides tying up whatever they wanted to do in federal court?

Other than that?

Once more:

They don't have any power now.
The statute would give them some power.
Even if there might be a challenge to the statute in federal court, it's still an improvement over what they have now. Which is nothing.

So it doesn't tie their hands, because their hands are completely tied today by a statute that forbids them from shutting down asylum applications under all circumstances. Passing a law that would let them shut down applications in some circumstances cannot possibly tie their hands.
