About this episode
*CAUTION: This episode contains adult language*
Texas will soon become the ‘Show Me State’ when Governor Abbott signs Senate Bill 4 into law. This is the legislation that lets local and state police arrest people who cannot prove whether they are a citizen. Immigration law is a federal responsibility, not a state one. That’s why lawsuits are threatened. In this episode, state Rep. Victoria Neave-Criado, D-Dallas, told the Jasons that she now carries her passport, worried of having to prove she is a citizen. U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro says he’s pressuring the Biden administration to respond to the Republican-led legislature’s latest move.
