Texas' governor told House Speaker Mike Johnson he's in favor of recently proposed border legislation.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott is encouraging Republicans to pass border legislation, seemingly breaking ranks with party leaders Donald Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson.Abbott met with Johnson on Thursday at the governor's mansion in Austin and, according to Abbott's office, told the Louisiana Republican that the border crisis 'is both unacceptable and avoidable.' The governor urged the passage of federal legislation to deter illegal crossings between ports of entry.
'The White House has attacked House GOP efforts to impeach Mayorkas as a 'shameless, unconstitutional stunt.'Abbott, meanwhile, has touted Operation Lone Star, a statewide venture that started in 2021 and has since deployed thousands of Texas National Guard soldiers and Texas Department of Public Safety troopers to the southern border to install razor wire and build a wall in counties bordering Mexico.
