Texas likely to set bar: Other states watching as anti-sanctuary cities legislation goes to vote... Texas lawmakers this week will vote on legislation that allows local law enforcement to question the immigration status of people they detain or arrest for violations that include traffic stops. If the state approves the legislation, it will join at least six others -- Arizona, Utah, Georgia, Indiana, Alabama and South Carolina -- that have passed large-scale measures targeting various aspects of federal immigration policy, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
