The collective roar of these resolute governors echoes the sentiments of millions of Americans who are fed up with the federal government’s abysmal failure to secure our southern border. Governor DeSantis took to social media to declare, “Texas is trying to enforce our laws and uphold our sovereignty while the federal government is disregarding the law and ignoring its responsibility to protect our borders.” Governor Kemp echoed this sentiment by emphatically stating, “Enough is enough. Our southern border is in crisis thanks to the Biden administration’s refusal to do their job.”
The bold stance of Governor Gianforte reflects the growing frustration with President Biden’s egregious neglect of the border crisis. He affirmed that Governor Abbott is taking decisive action that the Commander-in-Chief has failed to undertake, asserting, “By refusing to act, President Biden is inviting cartels, illegal drugs, and human trafficking into the United States. We must secure the southern border.”
Furthermore, Governor Stitt stood firm in expressing Oklahoma’s unwavering support for Texas, while Governor Noem reinforced the chorus of solidarity by affirming that Governor Abbott is “exactly right to invoke Texas’ constitutional authority to defend itself.”
Governor Youngkin and Governor Justice added a resounding endorsement of Governor Abbott’s unwavering resolve to confront the border crisis head-on. Governor Youngkin emphasized that “Virginia stands with Texas,” while Governor Justice highlighted the urgency to halt the flow of fentanyl, human trafficking, and criminal activity across the southern border.
Even Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) bolstered this unified front by vowing to throw the weight of the House behind Governor Abbott’s valiant efforts.
In the face of the U.S. Supreme Court’s perplexing decision to side with the Biden administration, Governor Abbott has shown no signs of backing down. Every American who values border security must stand behind Governor Abbott as he doubles down on Texas’ unwavering commitment to fortify the embattled Texas-Mexico border in the Eagle Pass area.
As the relentless battle for border security rages on, these stalwart Republican leaders are standing arm in arm with Governor Abbott, amplifying the resounding plea to thwart the Biden administration’s disastrous border policies. The stakes are high, but with the unwavering support of these formidable governors, the Lone Star State has a formidable coalition ready to hold the line against the perilous flood of illegal immigration and criminal activity.
