Texas Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton pledged to resist the Supreme Court’s decision regarding razor wire on the southern border.
“The Supreme Court’s temporary order allows Biden to continue his illegal effort to aid the foreign invasion of America. The destruction of Texas’s border barriers will not help enforce the law or keep American citizens safe. This fight is not over, and I look forward to defending our state’s sovereignty.” Ken Paxton said last month.
After the US Supreme Court supported the Biden administration’s decision to cut and remove razor wire, Texas countered by opting to install additional razor wire.
WATCH:
NEW—The Texas National Guard responds to the Supreme Court’s order to remove the razor wire in Eagle Pass by installing even more. Governor Abbott has said “Texas will not back down” as it defends its border.
