Bill would let Texas counties deliver jailed illegal immigrants to congressional offices

More on Kolkhorst's bill:
AUSTIN — Rep. Lois Kolkhorst has an idea about where to put some of the illegal immigrants languishing in county jails whom federal officials can’t find space for: How ’bout over there by the file cabinet?
Kolkhorst, R-Brenham, has filed legislation that would allow sheriffs to take immigrants to the local offices of any U.S. representative or senator and deposit them there.
