‘Unthinkable’: GOP’s Entire Texas Delegation In Congress Asks State Officials To Investigate Colony Ridge
Lawmakers say ‘it is unthinkable that such an enormous settlement would be allowed to persist in Texas’
Excerpt:
All 25 Republican U.S. congressmen representing Texas are raising the alarm to state officials about Colony Ridge, calling on Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton to take immediate action on the housing development just outside of Houston that many believe has become a settlement for thousands of illegal aliens.
The letter, which was led by Representative Brian Babin and co-signed by the state’s entire Republican delegation, tells the officials that, based on the concerns raised by constituents about the development, it is “unthinkable that such an enormous settlement would be allowed to persist in Texas.”
“If even a fraction of the above claims are accurate, it is unthinkable that such an enormous settlement would be allowed to persist in Texas, much less expand to over double in size over the next decade,” the letter states. “We believe it is incumbent on state and local officials to respond appropriately to mitigate the effects on our citizens, their way of life, and their safety.”
.....“According to these same claims, state and local law-enforcement treat this area as an effective, ‘no-go zone,’ further heightening the appeal for illegal activity in this development.” The letter also addresses “negative impacts on the local school system,” explaining that its rapid growth is largely “due to the thousands of illegal aliens flocking to Colony Ridge.”
But in addition to issues regarding crime, an overburdened school system, and a surge in the illegal immigrant population in the area, the letter goes on to point to a burden on local infrastructure, citing a report from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality that found Colony Ridge responsible for “48,000 gallons of wastewater contaminating local bayous and significant fecal coliform contamination of drainage ditches.”
....The congressmen say Attorney General Paxton should “thoroughly investigate the land purchasing, use, tax status, and other authorizations relating to Colony Ridge and its affiliate entities.” The letter applauds Governor Abbott for announcing his plan to call a special legislative session to address Colony Ridge, noting that “it is our view that any new state laws created to address these concerns should be applied and upheld in Colony Ridge and the surrounding area.”

Will see what happens. The developer of this illegal 3rd world cesspool donated over $1 million to Abbott in last campaign coupled with developer’s wife donating over $ 100,000.
