Many progressive mayors in the U.S. have vowed to keep their cities a sanctuary for people in the country illegally in spite of condemnation from President-Elect Donald Trump, but what about state governors? Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was asked about it Sunday:

@GregAbbott_TX just saw on @FoxNews that Austin pledges to remain a sanctuary city. Is there anything your office can do to reverse this?

Abbott’s answer:

Yes. I'm going to sign a law that bans sanctuary cities. Also I've already issued an order cutting funding to sanctuary cities. #txlege https://t.co/uYXa2QFrvE

Oh, that’s sure to trigger some anger on the Left! Stay tuned.

Until then, Abbott’s getting plenty of praise from non-progressive circles:

Governor Abbott is a true leader and great American @realDonaldTrump #MAGA #AmericaFirst https://t.co/Klya1WvvTE
