I don’t think he can fire them. They are elected.

Sheriffs are elected. The Governor has no authority to fire them.

I disagree...they broke the law. They’re supposed to uphold the law. They should get double time in jail because of that fact IMO!

Gov. Abbott plans to do that but he needs new legislation for that authority since county sheriffs are elected officials.

Sheriffs are elected and can’t be fired (most places)
