Texas Governor Greg Abbott sat down to discuss the latest in border security as well as busing immigrants to other cities.
Governor, I want to turn to an issue that is first and foremost in your mind, which is protecting our exposed, porous border. Operation Lone Star, busing migrants to northern cities, deploying the National Guard, you have done it all. You have brought a lot of exposure to the national consciousness to the crisis. Do you think the tide is turning?Governor Greg Abbott :Well, listen, the results are tangible. Remember ground zero for crossings in Texas was in Eagle Pass.
Let me be clear about this, Congress has passed three laws - one that requires the President to deter anyone who is trying to enter the country illegally and then to detain anybody who does enter illegally and to build border barriers. Biden is doing none of those three things. Texas is trying to step up and enforce by state law the same law that Congress passed, which is to deny illegal entry, detain people who get here and build those border walls.
