"Texas DPS Enforcement of SB 4 Sparks Controversy and Protests"
The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) clarified its enforcement plan for Senate Bill 4 (SB4), stating that if the law goes into effect, troopers would focus on arresting migrants crossing the Rio Grande and largely enforce the law in counties along the southern border. They would not check immigration status during traffic stops inland and would only arrest adults, while family units and children would be handed over to Border Patrol. The DPS's narrower enforcement plan applies only to state troopers, but they plan to provide guidance to law enforcement agencies across Texas.
