As well they shouldn't. Immigration is a federal jurisdiction and a foreign nation forming immigration agreements with a state is a disaster waiting to happen. Just like the US wouldn't bypass Canada to have a border agreement with Alberta.
And you should be glad that it isn't. You want Mexico forming immigration policy directly with California?
Is Texas forming their own immigration policy or are they just following federal immigration policy? Seems like local governance should pretty easily be able to handle border jumpers and not need every single illegal to be handled by the feds.
Maybe I put it poorly. These policies are between nations. When the Sherriff Dept. of Random County, TX shows up at the border and says, "take this guy," it shouldn't be surprising if Mexico's response is, "we have a repatriation agreements with the US government, but who the fuck are you?"
Everything with national borders is a pain in the ass, even when it should be easy. Practically, local LEO drops their asses at a CBP, ICE, USBP station and they get processed and deported from there. There's no direct repatriation agreement between the state of Texas and Mexico.
