You need to pay attention to whats going on.

http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/Texas-Senate-OKs-cops-asking-for-immigration-1687599.php

Rick Perry was against Jan Brewers law as it “was not right for Texas”
That is why he pushed and passed SB9 which implemented safeguards to stop rogue local sanctuary cities type aholes from PREVENTING officers asking for immigration status.

At its core, SB 9 allows law enforcement officers to ask someone about their immigration status after they are detained and also establishes uniform statewide standards. It also would ban local governments from enacting a policy prohibiting the enforcement of state or federal immigration laws.

I’m sorry...but if he DID NOT pass get it passed. It means one of two things:

1) Those mean Republicans who comprise TWO THIRDS of the state legislature just wouldn’t give him what ‘he wanted’.

2) ...or he never really wanted it anyway.

Obviously I’m convinced that #2 is right, or he would have called another special session...but if #1 is right, then how is he going to get a 55% Republican majority (at the very best) to lift a finger for him should he be president?

Bottom line - we don’t have a Sanctuary City law, we have dead cops because of that, and we have a governor who is either incapable of passing the law, or unwilling to seriously push for it.

Sounds like my man for president. (LOL)
