Texas will punish cities and towns that defund their police by BANNING them from raising property taxes after state officials say Austin 'bowed to cancel culture' when it voted to slash $150M from their cops
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - Greg Abbott, the governor of Texas, spoke on Tuesday to announce the policy
- All towns and cities that defund police departments will be affected
- They will not be able to increase property tax in their jurisdictions
- Abbott's announcement came after Austin cut $150m from their police budget
- Last week Austin City Council unanimously approved a proposal to cut the police budget by $150 million, about 34 per cent of its current total, and reinvest in other resources
