SAISD says improvements have been made to reduce lead in water, but refuse to make anyone available for questions on howVolunteers helped register voters in 2020. Allegations related to different voting actions in 2022 led to an investigation, according to the Texas Attorney General.
“It is disgraceful and outrageous that the state of Texas, and its highest-ranking law enforcement officer is once again using the power of his office to instill fear in the hearts of community members who volunteer their time to promote civic engagement,” Rosales said in a statement.
Paxton’s office did not reply to a request for additional information. His announcement did not detail the targets of the raids, the number of raids, or the reason specific homes were searched. According to one person whose home was raided, Rosales said, law enforcement suggested that he was accused of possessing “illegal voter information” — a claim that he denied and called politically motivated, saying voter information is publicly available.
