Texas declares state of emergency due to surge at Texas-Mexico border

Abbott issues disaster declaration in response to ‘surge’ at Texas-Mexico border
KXAN Austin
Gov. Greg Abbott issued a disaster declaration Tuesday in 34 counties along Texas’ border with Mexico in response to, what he called, an “ongoing surge” of illegal immigration being neglected by the federal government.
Abbott’s order authorizes all available state resources to assist state and local law enforcement to protect Texans from property damage, trespassing, smuggling, and human trafficking.
quote:
The order directs the Texas Commission on Jail Standards to work with border counties to expand capacity for detention and calls on the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to end licenses for child care facilities involved in federal contracts to shelter or detain undocumented immigrants.

I think they are sending that fat chick back over there again today to cackle at all the imprisoned kids.

Democrats love an invading force.

Can Abbott not activate the guard?
Posted on 6/2/21 at 6:51 am to goofball
Won’t matter if they stop it completely. CA welcomes them with open arms.

Should have declared it an invasion and call up the national guard to protect his border from the enemy.

Did he pass this one by DeSantis? Abbott can't do anything unless The n does it first.

Meanwhile in Washington DC.

Is this their 2024 strategy?

Individual county emergencies have been issued for the last couple months. It's good to see Abbot recognizing it on the state level. Hell we found an illegal wandering around a gas plant in the middle of the night a month ago.

Since 90% of the folks crossing the border are traversing private land without the permission of the landowner, why aren't the state and local LEO's arresting, charging and prosecuting them with criminal trespass?

Must be those white supremacists again!
