Texas poised to let state and local police arrest illegal aliens and send them packing to Mexico

Texas is poised to enable local police to do what the Biden administration has until recently appeared reluctant or unwilling to do: send illegal aliens packing.

The Texas legislature passed Republican state Rep. David Spiller’s House Bill 4 in an 83-63 vote early Thursday morning. If harmonized with a similar bill recently passed by the state Senate and ratified by Gov. Greg Abbott, HB4 would enable police to arrest and oust illegal aliens.

In addition to making illegal entry into the Lone Star State a class B misdemeanor, the bill would allow foreign nationals who refuse to leave the country to be charged with a second-degree felony, which carries prison time of up to 20 years, reported KERA-TV.

Illegal aliens found “at any time” who have previously been convicted of two or more misdemeanors involving drugs, crimes against a person, or both would be charged with a third-degree felony.
