Texans back many things Gov. Greg Abbott is doing to halt a migrant influx at the U.S.-Mexico border, but support for his state-built wall has ebbed,...
. Nearly two-thirds of state voters support the federal public health order that closes U.S. borders to immigrants without visas, known as Title 42.
But a 47-45 plurality opposes using state funds to extend the border wall begun by former President Donald Trump. In both January and February, by 48-37, more Texans agreed than disagreed that a wall is necessary for a safe border. This month, that shrank to just 44-42. Though Democratic critics dismiss Abbott’s escalating set of border security tactics as a political stunt, UT-Tyler political scientist Mark Owens said the two-term Republican’s doggedness is paying some electoral dividends.
“Abbott shows a commitment to implement those strategies until they are successful,” said Owens, the poll’s director. “The visibility on all fronts is part of why the governor has a 15% advantage over President [Joe] Biden in public approval for how they are handling the border.”
