Is Abbott doing the right thing to secure the border?

Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott said Wednesday that he’s partnering with the governor of the Mexican state of Nuevo León to secure a section of the Texas-Mexico border.

According to Abbott’s office, Gov. Samuel García signed a memorandum of understanding between the State of Texas and the Free and Sovereign State of Nuevo León to enhance border security measures to prevent illegal immigration. The agreement takes effect immediately.

“Texans demand and deserve an aggressive, comprehensive border security strategy that will protect our communities from the dangerous consequences related to illegal immigration,” Abbott said. “Until President Biden enforces the immigration laws passed by Congress, Texas will step up and use its own strategies to secure the border and negotiate with Mexico to seek solutions that will keep Texans safe.”

“This historic memorandum of understanding between Texas and Nuevo León is a major step in the Lone Star State’s efforts to secure the border in the federal government’s absence,” he added.

Announcing the agreement, Abbott blasted President Joe Biden for rescinding effective border security measures, such as Title 42.

“With the Biden administration ending Title 42 expulsions in May, Texas will be taking its own unprecedented actions this month to do what no state in America has ever done in the history of this country to better secure our state, as well as our nation,” Abbott said, according to The Daily Wire.

Governors from Tamaulipas, Coahuila and Chihuahua, as well as the Chief Officer for the North American Unit at the Mexican Secretariat of Foreign Affairs, have been communicating with Abbott’s office and the Texas secretary of state about signing similar memorandums, the governor’s office said.
