Texas Gov. Abbott warns border woes 'will get worse,' points to 'bipartisan response' to Biden admin
Abbott continued to blame Biden administration policies for the ongoing crisisTexas Gov. Greg Abbott said Sunday that in his state it's not just Republicans who are pushing back against the Biden administration as migrants surge to the southern border in record numbers.
According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, there were more than 172,000 border stops in March – the most in 20 years – and 20,822 unaccompanied minors are in federal custody. Republicans have blamed the spike on Biden's immigration policies, but Abbott insists that in Texas they are not alone.
"This is a bipartisan response to the Biden administration because you have Democrat members of the United States Congress, you have Democratic members of the state legislature, as well as Democrat local officials who are pushing back against the Biden administration as much as conservatives in the state of Texas," the Republican governor told "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace.
