A large convoy of truckers are traveling toward Eagle Pass to demand action from the Biden administration to fix the "wide open" flood of illegal migrants.
"Fellow citizens and compatriots ... I call on you in the name of liberty, of patriotism and everything dear to the American character to come to our aid with all dispatch," Pete Chambers, one of the coalition’s commanders, wrote on the "Take Our Border Back" website.
"If this call is neglected, we are determined to sustain ourselves as long as possible and act like soldiers who never forget what is due to our own honor and that of our country," Chambers wrote.
The multi-state convoy is set to begin today, and arrive in Eagle Pass on Saturday. Another convoy will originate in California and head to Arizona.
In a press release, the organizers say this reflects the "vibrant American spirit" that unites "We the People."
"We the People are resolute to stand to send a peaceful, lawful, and clear message to all city, state, and federal politicians and immigration enforcement officials who are enabling tens of thousands of illegal entrants, criminals and known terrorists from over 160 countries worldwide to cross daily into our country along our southern border!" the press release said.
