So why would they refuse to hear now?

From my limited understanding, and I am getting this from the video I posted. When there is a dispute between States, be it water rights, boundaries, or Federal Elections. The only avenue of relief is SCOTUS. SCOTUS has ko alternative but to hear it. The case is on the docket and they are going to hear it. I think that is why the State of Texas did what they did. SCOTUS must look at the case now.
