Gov. Greg Abbott (R-Texas) said on FOX News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures” that the installation of razor wire in Eagle Pass, Texas, has “significantly reduced the number of migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border illegally.” “This led to a significant decrease.”
The Supreme Court ruled last month that Border Patrol agents can remove razor wire.
Mr. Abbott said, “Maria, more than half of the governors are now united in support of a very important proposal, which means that if our state faces imminent harm or invasion, we are protected by the U.S. Constitution from defending ourselves.” “Texas clearly faces both imminent harm and invasion.”
He continued: “These governors have rallied across Texas to support our continued right to self-defense and the deployment of this razor wire, which has led to a significant reduction in inflows.” . Maria, take this. The area that occupied this park in Eagle Pass, Texas, where we installed razor wire, used to have 3,000 or 4,000 people crossing that area a day. ”
Abbott added: “Over the last three days, on average, only three people crossed the area. What’s important is to show that we can secure the border if we continue to resist. Joe Biden will stop it. You shouldn’t.”
