Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit to shut down operations of a nongovernmental organization (NGO) in El Paso that provides housing and other services for illegal immigrants.
Earlier this month, the Consumer Protection Division of the attorney general’s office opened an investigation into the Annunciation House, a Catholic nonprofit in El Paso, after reviewing public records that indicated possible legal violations, including “facilitating illegal entry to the United States, alien harboring, human smuggling, and operating a stash house,” according to the lawsuit.
