Texas AG probes Dallas sanctuary policies for compliance
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched an investigation into Dallas over its sanctuary city policies that protect illegal immigrants. He has requested records from the city and its police department regarding their compliance with state and federal immigration laws. Paxton's office is seeking documents related to the enforcement of immigration laws, including any decisions to not cooperate with federal authorities. He expressed concerns that Dallas may be violating Texas law by adopting policies that limit immigration enforcement. The city of Dallas is currently reviewing the Attorney General's request and plans to respond in due course. Texas has been actively enforcing immigration laws, particularly under the current administration.
