Texas Don’t Want Immigrants But Biden Govt. Adamant on Texas Border Bill
Austin, TX: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and other leaders in Texas express strong opposition to a Senate border bill introduced by Democrats, asserting that it enshrines mass migration into the United States and undermines states’ constitutional right to self-defense.
The proposal follows the participation of 25 Republican governors who have joined Texas in a constitutional battle with the Biden administration regarding border security.
A bill has been released after months of secrecy. According to U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-Louisiana, it is believed that the bill does not effectively secure the border and promotes policies that are considered illegal by the Biden administration. Texas leaders argue that the bill also prevents states from seeking any judicial relief.
The bill includes a provision that would limit the ability of federal judges in any state to rule on lawsuits filed by states. This could have significant implications for states such as Texas, Florida, Louisiana, and others whose federal judges have previously ruled against the Biden administration in lawsuits related to border measures over the past few years.

The jurisdiction to hear challenges to the validity of this section or any related policies lies solely with the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.
“Texas loses authority in border security legislation,” Abbott responded. “This is highly disappointing.”
During a meeting with governors on Sunday, Abbott highlighted the collaborative efforts of states in securing a specific area of the Texas border, with plans to extend this success to other regions. According to Texas border czar Mike Banks, the success in blocking cartel-driven illegal activity has resulted in the illegal activity being pushed west towards Democratic-run states that are not providing any resistance.
According to Joshua Treviño from the Texas Public Policy Foundation, there is a solution that Texans believe can effectively address the border crisis in Washington, D.C. It doesn’t need an extensive bill. Our solution is simply to ask for cooperation.
TPPF has highlighted several concerns with the bill, pointing out a provision that they believe could potentially create a “border emergency authority” that may lead to illegal entry of a significant number of foreign nationals and undermine existing border security measures.

The Senate bill proposes a significant increase in the number of daily illegal entries, which goes against federal law that mandates the number to be zero, with only a few exceptions. It is important to note that illegal entry is considered a deportable crime.
According to U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, the Senate agreement seems to embrace the idea of a large-scale migration approach. We cannot establish a universally agreed-upon level of illegal immigration. Uphold the law.
The bill aims to broaden the existing policies of the Biden administration by granting immigration officers the power to exempt a certain number of undocumented immigrants from the count without any further review or oversight, according to TPPF.
The House is currently in the process of impeaching Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. U.S. Sen. James Lankford, R-Oklahoma, collaborated with Democrats on the bill, which involved removing specific asylum language from existing law.
The Senate bill proposes allocating over $2.3 billion to NGOs, who, according to TPPF, have either knowingly or unknowingly contributed to the border crisis and the human-trafficking cartels involved. It would also allocate a significant amount of funding for President Biden to distribute to foreign governments involved in the border crisis, without proper oversight or accountability.

According to Texas officials, the senators advocating for the bill lack a comprehensive understanding of the dangers presented by Mexican cartels and transnational criminal organisations, which have contributed to a significant influx at the southern border. Crockett County’s resolution characterises certain organisations as engaging in unconventional methods to conceal their involvement in drug and human trafficking.
Last year, Abbott and the Texas legislature officially classified Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organisations, a move that Abbott and other individuals have urged the president to take.
