Lawless Borders Are A Humanitarian Crisis It’s Past Time To Finally Solve

Human beings are used as currency for evil criminal organizations to gain power and wealth. American citizens are dying. Immigrants who seek to come here are dying.
Texas has a proud history of Americans and Mexicans traveling across the border to the benefit of each nation. The result is an extraordinarily unique and prosperous relationship, and we must ensure that goods, services, and people continue to flow across our border to the advancement of all. Our economies are stronger, our people are stronger, and our nations are stronger when the border works as it should.
Any informed Texan will tell you that our border, in far too many places, is dangerous and broken. The effects of cartels, gangs, terrorists, human traffickers, and all manner of criminals are reaching ever farther into our states and communities. Human beings are used as currency for evil criminal organizations to gain power and wealth. American citizens are dying. Immigrants who seek to come here are dying.
The president is correct to demand that these atrocities end immediately. Excuses from either party must end. No more race-based pandering from the left and no more shilling to the financial interests of big corporations on the right. No more nonsense about fences “not working” or excuses about the inability to construct a fence due to parks and the large amounts of private land along the Rio Grande.
Failing to provide necessary resources to establish operational control of our border is a dereliction of our constitutional duty. That means we build fences and navigable roads. That means more border patrol agents and more judges. That means more technology. That means cane-clearing along the Rio Grande. It is common sense, and here is why.
