The Governor also shared video of border wall construction happening in Cameron County.

“Texas continues to use every tool and strategy available to respond to Biden’s border crisis — including building our own border wall. This is a section of wall under construction in Cameron County.”

Texas Guardsmen are currently patrolling the border day and night in an attempt to curb illegal entries from Mexico into Texas.

“The Texas National Guard stands guard at night, defending the barricade they built, to prevent migrants from entering illegally,” Abbott shared on X.

Abbott’s border initiative, Operation Lone Star, has been incredibly successful in stopping the flow of deadly drugs and dangerous migrants over the southern border. Abbott shared some of the stats from Lone Star late last week in an official statement from the governor’s office.

“Since the launch of Operation Lone Star, the multi-agency effort has led to over 481,000 illegal immigrant apprehensions and more than 36,000 criminal arrests, with more than 32,700 felony charges reported. In the fight against the fentanyl crisis, Texas law enforcement has seized over 434 million lethal doses of fentanyl during this border mission.”

Texas has also bused:

• Over 12,500 migrants to Washington, D.C. since April 2022
• Over 22,300 migrants to New York City since August 2022
• Over 17, 800 migrants to Chicago since August 2022
• Over 3,200 migrants to Philadelphia since November 2022
• Over 6,600 migrants to Denver since May 18
• Over 1,100 migrants to Los Angeles since June 14
