@dcexaminer Sheriffs are elected officials, so another elected official making a law to remove an elected official ... could be an interesting dilemma if the Texas bill which (IIRC?) criminalizes a law enforcement officer assisting a Fed Agent trying to enforce gun control passes
Didn't think about that...

Personally, I think everyone should write her thanking her for introducing this bill and that you applaud her efforts to get local law enforcement to enforce immigration laws.
See how fast she can yank the bill.

Can we request that Attorney General Holder resign? He seems to selectively enforce that law.

Unfortunately Yvonne Davis is my rep, and nobody even bothers to run against her she is so entrenched. I don't think she has ever even bothered to respond to any letter I have written her.

Interesting, sheriffs and county judges are created by the Texas Constitution. You would think a Constitutional ammendment would be reuired. She has probably never had it read to her.

You have my condolences. Now, if I may ask, why is she so entrenched? Is she really doing that good of a job for her constituents or is she really good about buying votes? I don't really expect a answer to my questions but it sure makes you wonder sometimes.
Mostly minority area of Dallas that votes Democrat regardless of any issues I imagine. A good indicator is the last time someone ran against her in 2008. She won with 79% of the vote. Even back in 1992 (her first run), she won with 65% of the vote.

I propose that the Sheriff's office in Dallas County start enforcing any & all laws that she or her office may possibly be in violation of.
In Texas the County Sheriff is the highest law of the land.
