Texas law enforcement can no longer contract with reality TV shows

Reality TV shows can no longer contract with Texas law enforcement agencies after Gov. Greg Abbott signed House Bill 54, also known as the Javier Ambler law.

Javier Ambler was killed during an altercation with Williamson County deputies. On March 28, 2019, deputies pursued Ambler’s car from Williamson County into Travis County where he died while deputies were trying to take him into custody.
