Sheriffs of border communities from San Diego to Brownsville came to Austin to discuss what's next for border security. The meeting comes as law enforcement encounters along the border have plummeted. But even with the heightened enforcement, Adam Schwager found some sheriffs still have concerns. Texas Senators approve legislation to clarify when a doctor can perform an abortion to protect a woman's health. But moments after that vote, Senators moved to tighten the state's ban on abortion.
