CNN: TEXAS PREPARING TO REVERSE COURSE ON IMMIGRATION UNDER DEMOCRAT GOVERNOR-ELECT! “Now it may go a different direction, with Democrats being the ones who use Texas as a blueprint in the way that they navigate the issue of immigration.” CNN’s Priscilla Alvarez reports that Texas is poised reverse immigration policy under Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa. “Things like Operation Lone Star, which became a national headline, she has said was political theater and too costly.” “Houston is a place where they’ve already started to make changes, because according to the mayor, quote, ‘elections matter.’” “The Department of Homeland Security doesn’t quite know how it’s going to change, or whether it’s going to change its operations in Texas, given this election and the Democratic governor.” Alvarez said DHS is “watching, observing, and preparing” for more challenges in Texas, a state that “has often dictated the conversation” on immigration nationally. Hinojosa voted against the state’s border barrier funding and its illegal-entry law while in the legislature.
