Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) announced over the week that he is launching an operation to combat human and drug trafficking along the state’s border with Mexico which comes as the region is dealing with an illegal immigration crisis that has erupted on President Joe Biden’s watch.

“The crisis at our southern border continues to escalate because of Biden Administration policies that refuse to secure the border and invite illegal immigration,” Abbott said. “Texas supports legal immigration but will not be an accomplice to the open border policies that cause, rather than prevent, a humanitarian crisis in our state and endanger the lives of Texans. We will surge the resources and law enforcement personnel needed to confront this crisis.”
