Top business leaders try to derail Texas ‘sanctuary cities’ bill (SB29)...Two of Texas’ most powerful business leaders have mounted a late-hour push to derail an anti-illegal-immigration bill in the Legislature’s special session. Houston homebuilder Bob Perry and HEB/Central Market grocery chieftain Charles Butt applied pressure Thursday to members of a House panel to block the “sanctuary cities” measure that would let police officers ask anyone they stop about their residency status.. The Senate-passed bill faces a crucial hearing Monday before the House State Affairs Committee. The special session must end by Wednesday night.
