Major Legislative Achievements Boost Texas' Historic Border Mission
TelAve News/10791808
Governor Greg Abbott, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), and the Texas National Guard are continuing to work together to secure the border; stop the smuggling of drugs, weapons, and people into Texas; and prevent, detect, and interdict transnational criminal behavior between ports of entry.
Since the launch of Operation Lone Star, the multi-agency effort has led to over 379,000 illegal immigrant apprehensions and more than 29,000 criminal arrests, with more than 26,000 felony charges reported. In the fight against fentanyl, Texas law enforcement has seized over 418 million lethal doses of fentanyl during this border mission.
Texas has also bused more than 9,500 migrants to our nation's capital since April 2022, over 7,100 migrants to New York City since August 5, more than 2,100 migrants to Chicago since August 31, more than 1,200 migrants to Philadelphia since November 15, and 80 migrants to Denver since May 18.
Operation Lone Star continues to fill the dangerous gaps left by the Biden Administration's refusal to secure the border. Every individual who is apprehended or arrested and every ounce of drugs seized would have otherwise made their way into communities across Texas and the nation due to President Joe Biden's open border policies.
RECENT HIGHLIGHTS FROM OPERATION LONE STAR:
Governor Abbott Announces Special Session Agenda Including Border Security
On Monday, Governor Abbott announced special session #1 and issued a proclamation identifying agenda items for the Special Session that include cracking down on illegal human smuggling. The Governor's first called special session immediately follows a successful regular session that allocated more than $5.1 billion to secure the border and fund the Texas National Guard, DPS, and construction of a border wall. Additional legislation from the regular session that Governor Abbott will soon be signing includes designating Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and prosecuting fentanyl deaths as murder.

Despite these important achievements, Governor Abbott included in the special session agenda legislation solely for the purpose of increasing or enhancing the penalties for certain criminal conduct involving the smuggling of persons or the operation of a stash house.

Texas National Guard Continues Building Razor Wire Barriers Along Border
Texas National Guard engineers continue to construct additional razor wire along the Texas-Mexico border to help stem the flow of illegal immigrants attempting to cross. Engineers have laid miles of razor wire, which has successfully helped deter and repel illegal immigrant crossings.
