Texas Teens Protest Anti-Sanctuary Cities Law

Texas teenagers protested an anti-immigration bill with a festive cultural celebration – Quinceanera at the Capitol – on Wednesday, July 19.

Dressed in their finest, the girls sang and danced before presenting gifts to state representatives who voted against SB4. A lawsuit has been filed to prevent the bill, signed by Gov. Greg Abbott in May, from becoming law.
