The Great State Of Texas REFUSES TO BACK DOWN Against Obama According to recent reports, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has just announced a new plan intended to strip state grant funding from law enforcement who fail to honor ICE detainers. The move comes after Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez announced her intentions to look over the cases of illegal immigrants individual to determine whether or not to enforce the law. I am establishing new standards for Sheriffs Departments that seek grants from the Governors Criminal Justice Division (CJD), Abbott announced in a statement. Beginning now, all CJD grant awards will require that Sheriffs Departments fully honor ICEs detention requests for criminal immigrants. Any applicant that cannot certify that their office will honor all ICE detainers for criminal immigrants will be ineligible for CJD funding. Further, any applicant that certifies full compliance with ICE detainer requestsbut subsequently fails to honor an ICE detainerwill be subject to claw-back provisions and must refund the full amount of their CJD grant award. It is vitally important that Sheriffs lead by example and enforce the rule of law, he added. What do you think? Do you support Abbott?
