Especially Midland and that area. Seems the old oil money brought lots of trophy brides, who bore lovely offspring. Love going there when I can.

Perry is actually considered a little too RINOish for true Texas conservatives.

The bosses who disapprove should be arrested for hiring illegals. With a few hundred employers in jail, that “cheap” labor wouldn’t look quite so tempting.

“...cities, are still crawling with illegal aliens, and you’re being forced to pay for them.”

The Dallas Morning News reported that 71% of illegals in TX receive some form of taxpayer funded welfare. They don’t all come “to do the jobs Texans won’t do.” They are riding the gravy train, which is about to run out of gas.

I see a lot of vehicles with trailers in tow with all the belongings strapped on and headed towards the sourthern border. Things are getting tighter/tougher out there in the hinter lands is my guess.

Under the bill, police officers in so-called "sanctuary cities" will be able to question detained suspects about their immigration status even if their bosses disapprove.

What are some of the sanctuary cities in Texas? Didn't know they had them.

What are some of the sanctuary cities in Texas?”

Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, everything south of Corpus Christi. Went to Port Aransas last month. Stopped to buy gas in some small town on the way. Not a soul spoke English, most of the signs were in Spanish and we were truly the only non-Mexicans around.

Thanks, I’m surprised about the major cities even though most major cities are controlled by Dims. I’d have guessed some near the border would be sanctuary cities.

When Texas declares and passes laws preventing the millions of illegal aliens there from using or benefiting from tax paid services, ping me.

Not gonna happen.

California tried that -- Prop 187. The courts shot it down.

State legislatures (and voters) can't undertake to deny illegal aliens welfare of any kind.

It's up to the Congress.

You bet, and this whole sanctuary thing is a joke, since the U.S. is a de facto sanctuary country. Just look at the non-sanctuary cities, as they too are crawling with illegal aliens.

The government is bull sh*tting the people.

In the Houston Independent School District - one of the largest in the U.S. - the Hispanics outnumber the non-Hispanics. Unless something drastic is done within the next five years or sooner, I fear that much of Texas will be just an extension of Mexico.

The illegal Mezkin loving droolers who work for the sanctuary cities will just intimidate the cops, with implied threats, to keep them off the illegals.

Nothing will change.
