The House GOP's first bill of 2025 could enable a Ken Paxton power grab

  The Laken Riley Act would hand state attorneys general, like Ken Paxton in Texas, veto power over large swaths of federal immigration policy.

The article from MSN discusses a potential legislative move by House Republicans in 2025 that could significantly expand the powers of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. This bill, if passed, would allow the Attorney General to prosecute election-related crimes independently, bypassing local prosecutors. This change is seen as a response to the reluctance of some local prosecutors to pursue cases related to voter fraud, which Paxton and his supporters argue is a significant issue. Critics, however, fear this could lead to a politicization of justice, where the Attorney General could target political adversaries or pursue cases based on political motivations rather than legal merit. The proposal has sparked debate over the balance of power, the integrity of elections, and the potential for abuse of prosecutorial discretion.
