Description
A booming Texas residential development is pushing back after being put into an unwelcome national spotlight over immigration.
The Colony Ridge residential development north of Houston is one of the largest in Texas.
Republican Gov. Greg Abbott says lawmakers now may take a look at the neighborhood after unsubstantiated reports in conservative media that Colony Ridge is a magnet for immigrants living in the U.S. illegally. There's no evidence to support the claims.
Trey Harris is the developer of Colony Ridge and a campaign contributor to Abbott. He disputes the portrayals and says lawmakers should take a look themselves.
