Gov. Abbott Visits Valley to Discuss Border Security

Jessica Amaya October 15, 2021

MISSION- Governor Abbott along with several governors visited the valley to discuss border security and the increase of fentanyl over the years.  

The governors shared a ten-point plan to fight against the border crisis, those ten points include: 

• Continue Title 42 public health restrictions. 

• Fully reinstate the Migrant Protection Protocols. 

• Finish securing the border. 

• End catch and release. 

• Clear the judicial backlog. 

• Resume the deportation of all criminals. 

• Dedicate federal resources to eradicate human trafficking and drug trafficking. 

• Re-enter all agreements with our Northern Triangle partners and Mexico. 

• Send a clear message to potential migrants. 

• Deploy more federal law enforcement officers. 

President of the National Border Council, Brandon Judd discussed the amount of fentanyl, an opioid pain reliever has increased over the years. Also, the amount the drug cartels profit from it. 

“Over four hundred million dollars every month in illegal alien smuggling and that does not count the drug smuggling,” said Judd.
