Texas Republican slams Biden's border inaction: Failing to protect citizens from drug cartel 'invasion'
Rep. Arrington introduces resolution affirming rights of states to defend themselves

Rep. Jodey Arrington explains why his resolution is necessary to protect Americans from the 'invasion' at the border.
Rep. Jodey Arrington, R-Texas, is introducing a resolution to affirm the rights of states to defend themselves against drug cartels at the U.S. southern border.
In a Friday interview on "The Faulkner Focus" with Harris Faulkner, Arrington cited Article Four of the Constitution as support for his resolution. Article Four offers protection for states from an invasion, which he believes is happening at the border given the presence of armed criminals.
"When the federal government has failed to do its job to defend the border, protect its citizens, then it is the sovereign power and right inherently of the states to defend itself and their citizens," Arrington said.
