The 2017 legislation that banned so-called "sanctuary cities" in Texas allows local law officials to question the citizenship of anyone they detain or arrest. Therefore, option D is the correct choice. Option A is not correct because the legislation did not result in the immediate loss of funding for fiscal year 2018. Option B is not correct because the legislation actually allows for local police to enforce federal immigration laws. Option C is not correct because no such provision was included in the legislation. Option E is not correct because the legislation does not prohibit any form of immigration to such cities.
