SB243 directs the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs to: provide “outreach and education” to inform “migrant agricultural workers” of “their rights;” study the “need” for “additional or improved migrant labor housing facilities;” and locate “unlicensed migrant labor housing facilities” without identifying “individual migrant agricultural workers.”
The House passed SB243 on May 22, 2025, by a vote of 114 to 29. We have assigned pluses to the nays because state-sanctioned migrant labor camps should not exist in Texas or elsewhere in the United States. These compounds not only aid and abet the enormous influx of “temporary” foreign workers, but harbor illegal aliens. Mass migration, which is no less an “Invasion,” has become the most immediate and serious threat to our country. It’s an anti-American policy designed to destroy national unity, allegiance, and sovereignty, through a blatant undermining of the rule of law and an erosion of the value of citizenship. Texans must help save the Republic by demanding that state officials work to secure the U.S.-Mexico border, deport every illegal, and urge Congress to pass a moratorium on immigration until this crisis ends.
