Texas Standard for April 3, 2015
Women who fled Central America with their children are now said to be on a hunger strike at a detention center south of San Antonio. We check in with an immigration lawyer. Plus: Texas gives criminal records to kids who skip school – but now the U.S. Justice Department is probing whether Dallas County went too far in cracking down on truancy. And we’ll hear about changes coming to the Alamo, and an all-electric ’68 Mustang that can go 174 miles an hour. No matter where you are, it’s Texas Standard time!
