Texas House Passes Sanctuary City Ban With Stiff Penalty for Public Officials
Texas has come down on the federal government’s side in the sanctuary city debate.

The Texas House of Representatives passed a bill Thursday that places a statewide ban on sanctuary cities and allows state officials to jail police chiefs and sheriffs who refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities.

The measure also lets police officers inquire about the immigration status of anyone they detain or arrest including the subjects of traffic stops.
