Mayor Steve Adler and then-Council Member Greg Casar led that vote on the council, which was unanimous. The vote to slash APD&#8217;s budget forced the department to reduce or jettison several specialist anti-crime units.<\/p>\n<p>Casar was later elected to Congress as a Democrat from Texas&#8217; 35th District.<\/p>\n<p>Texas DPS troopers have statewide jurisdiction and have provided support in the past to cities like San Antonio and Dallas to reduce crime rates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/texas-dps-resume-law-enforcement-partnership-austin-police-july\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/texas-dps-resume-law-enforcement-partnership-austin-police-july <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is expected to resume helping the City of Austin\u2019s police department on July 2, after stepping away in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-71501","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
