Texas Deploys More Than 100 Miles Of Razor Wire To Secure Border

The state of Texas continues to secure the border and do the job the Biden Administration has not done.

That includes installing miles of razor wire to keep the state secure from the flood of illegal aliens that have been coming to Texas since 2021.

“I have to applaud our National Guard for stepping up and laying down that more than 100 miles of razor wire," said Governor Greg Abbott. "It is an effective barrier that denies illegal entry. But look, as you all know, the number one issue in the United States and in the presidential race is illegal immigration, and you know that Texas is the only one stepping up doing anything about it.”

Since the launch of Operation Lone Star, the multi-agency effort has led to over 506,500
illegal immigrant apprehensions and more than 41,200 criminal arrests, with more than 36,700 felony charges. In the fight against the fentanyl crisis, Texas law enforcement has seized over 471 million lethal doses of fentanyl during this border mission.

 Texas has also transported:

• Over 12,500 migrants to Washington, D.C. since April 2022
• Over 41,000 migrants to New York City since August 2022
• Over 33,700 migrants to Chicago since August 2022
• Over 3,400 migrants to Philadelphia since November 2022
• Over 17,500 migrants to Denver since May 18
• Over 1,500 migrants to Los Angeles since June 14
