Texas is fighting back against the escalating crisis at the southern border. Governor Greg Abbott signed a series of bold border security bills, labeling the Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations. The move solidifies Texas’ commitment to protecting its citizens and Americans from the chaos and danger at the border. The new legislation increases penalties for drug-related offenses and authorizes the use of drones by Texas military forces to enhance surveillance capabilities. Additionally, trained Border Patrol agents have expanded authority to arrest individuals involved in felony offenses. Texas is also fostering stronger partnerships between states for better coordination and information sharing on border security matters. The state is taking a proactive stance to deter illegal border crossings and intercept drug trafficking operations.
