- The page distinguishes the proposed rule from existing law and notes that the bill does not mention immigration.
Field notes
The explainer separates what the bill says from how it might apply at an immigration arrest, noting that the bill itself does not mention immigration. It says federal immigration agents are not peace officers under Texas law, while a Texas officer at the same scene could give the proposed order. The page also reports unofficial post-election results and explains that a bill would still need to pass both chambers and be signed to become law.
