States step up as Biden ignores border crisis he created
June 23, 2021 Christopher Holton
President Biden’s recalcitrance on the border crisis has prompted leaders on the state level to tackle the border crisis themselves.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has pledged to continue construction of the border barrier begun under the Trump administration and has allocated $250 million in state funds as a down payment. This is in addition to a state of emergency declaration Abbott declared, mobilizing a wide variety of state law enforcement and emergency personnel to secure Texas’ border with Mexico.Nearby states are also pitching in, with Florida and Nebraska announcing that they will send law enforcement personnel to Texas and Arizona to help with enforcement in the face of the massive wave of illegal alien traffic.
America’s porous southern border leaves citizens vulnerable to a variety of threats ranging from the spread of Wuhan Coronavirus to the potential smuggling of weapons of mass destruction. At the same time, the border crisis is proving a boon for the outlaw cartels that traffic in illegal drugs and human beings.
