Texas Governor Greg Abbott threatened to cut off state funds for the city of Dallas unless the sheriff complies with federal law enforcement regarding illegal aliens.
“As governor, I simply will not allow CJD grant funding administered by this office to support law enforcement agencies that refuse to cooperate with a federal law enforcement program that is intended to keep dangerous criminals off Texas streets,” Abbott wrote.
Dallas sheriff Lupe Valdez has made Dallas into a so-called ‘Sanctuary City” for illegal aliens by refusing to hold dangerous illegal alien criminals for federal authorities.
