Texas Governor Greg Abbott to sanctuary cities: “You are going to comply with the law.”
'Texas is taking a hard stance on illegal immigration, and one of the measures the state is taking is to make sure sanctuary cities hurt so badly they stop harboring those who come here unlawfully.
“I’m being abundantly clear,” said Abbot. “I don’t care what jurisdiction you’re at in the state of Texas. You are going to comply with the law.”
“I’ve already issued a governor’s order cutting off funding from the governor’s office that was going to some of these jurisdictions,” continued Abbott. “But secondly, we’re going to pass a ban on sanctuary cities in the state of Texas that will put real teeth in this, compelling local officials to apply the law of the United States of America.”
