Annunciation House founder speaks on AG Paxton stopping attempts to shut down nonprofit
EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) — After nearly three years of legal battles between El Paso nonprofit Annunciation House and the Texas Attorney General’s Office, AG Paxton has backed off from efforts to shut it down.
The lawsuit began in 2024, after the attorney general’s office demanded that the Annunciation House turn over records to examine the various migrant shelters the organization has operated for years.
