State of Texas - February 1, 2026
Local law enforcement agencies across Texas have been entering 287 G agreements to help ICE achieve its mission. Josh Hinkle looks closer at the impact of a new state law paving the way for broader partnerships with the federal entity, and why some worry there's not enough training for law enforcement in these partnerships.
Governor Abbott orders public universities and state agencies to halt petitions for H-1B visas. Dylan McKim examines the impact, and why the governor says the state needs to crack down.
In the Republican race for U.S. Senate, one candidate is calling for four debates, another says there's no point, and the leader in the polls isn't saying anything. Adam Schwager reports on why a GOP Senate debate is not likely, as Texas voters prepare to decide this three-way race.
A report from the Texas Education Agency shows a spike in the number of students identified with dyslexia - a jump of more than 600%. Josh Skurnik explores how a state law could be a key factor behind the surge, and how educators are adapting to help students.
State of Texas is a statewide, in-depth program focused solely on Texas politics. Produced at KXAN in Austin and airing in 14 markets across the state, the show gives viewers greater perspective on the Texas Legislature, state policy and elections.
