Texas legislator on law targeting illegal border crossings
A new Texas law makes it a state crime to illegally cross the southern border into Texas. In the past, courts have ruled that only the federal government has the right to enforce immigration laws and civil rights have already sued to challenge the law. Stephanie Sy discussed more with state Rep. David Spiller, the Texas Republican who sponsored the bill.
