Texas leads nation in anti-immigrant legislation, according to new LULAC study

The Texas State legislature has proposed 91 anti-immigrant laws in the past four years, more than any other U.S. state according to a study published last week by the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC). LULAC's report analyzed the number of "anti-immigrant" laws being debated in state legislatures between 2020 and 2024. The civil-rights group chose this time frame because anti-immigration rhetoric became more mainstream following the 2020 presidential election, according to the analysis.
