Texas Bill Opens Up Loophole on Biden: The Border Wall Might Get Built After All
Texas Bill Opens Up Loophole on Biden: The Border Wall Might Get Built After All (westernjournal.com)
12 Mar 2021 ~~ By Jack Cowhick
This bill could be the key to securing the southern border.
Texas state Rep. Bryan Slaton filed a bill in the Texas House of Representatives on March 4 aimed at creating a fund to pay for “border security enhancement projects.” As an Op-Ed from The Blaze’s Daniel Horowitz explained, it could even lead to the construction of the border wall in certain states.
Slaton’s bill would use state funds to complete the border wall in Texas and would require the governor to seek reimbursement from the federal government. In short, if the bill passes in the Texas legislature, the state would be able to construct a border wall system along its southern border using money from the Biden administration.
The bill would also strengthen Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s existing push for border security, reinforcing “Operation Lone Star” which launched this week and deployed National Guard and Border Patrol agents to protect the southern border against incoming drug cartels.
Both moves for security on the border are being made in response to the Biden administration’s actions so far. President Joe Biden halted construction of the border wall the day he took office, declaring a pause on “work on each construction project on the southern border wall.”
Comment:
If the State of Texas is able to pull this off, New Mexico and Arizona will follow through, that would leave California to handle the influx of illegal aliens, drug smuggling and human trafficking.
I don't think the Governor of CA whomever that may be after the coming recall will like that and may alos follow suit.
It's my belief that Biden and the Progressive Marxist/DSA Democrat Left will not be able to legally stop a sovereign state of the union from protecting it's borders.
Meanwhile I’m sure that a Federal Judge legilating from the bench somewhere will grant a permanent injunction against Texas’s building of a border wall on the grounds that defending/securing the border is a Federal matter and that states have absolutely no say in the matter.
