is once again front and center at the Texas Capitol.to address legislative priorities for him, which include school choice and border security.
These include Senate Bill 4, which would increase the minimum sentence from two to 10 years for smuggling immigrants or operating a stash house. That bill has received bipartisan support as it’s moved through the legislature. Then there’s House Bill 4. That has drawn the most scrutiny among Democrats.
