Описание: #TexasImmigration #ImmigrationReform #Texas2026 #SB147

🚨 URGENT: Three immigration reform bills just passed in Texas — and the stakes are higher than most immigrants have been told. Senate Bill 147, House Bill 892, and Senate Bill 203 were pushed through in just 72 hours, creating the most aggressive state-level immigration enforcement framework in modern Texas history.
If you're an immigrant in Texas, a DACA recipient, or have family members without documentation, this changes everything about employment verification, police interactions, and driver's license eligibility.

⚠️ What Just Passed:

Senate Bill 147 — Mandatory E-Verify for all Texas employers (10+ employees)
House Bill 892 — Law enforcement can ask immigration status during ANY stop
Senate Bill 203 — New restrictions on driver's licenses and state IDs

📍 Who This Affects:
✓ 1.6 million undocumented immigrants in Texas
✓ 94,000 DACA recipients facing driver's license restrictions
✓ 180,000 Texas businesses now required to use E-Verify
✓ Mixed-status families across all major Texas cities
