25 GOP Governors Unite to Back Texas in Border Security Battle
Republican Governors Express Support for Texas in Border Security Efforts
Twenty-five Republican governors from across the country have united in a powerful statement, showing their unwavering support for the state of Texas as it fights to secure its border with Mexico.
The Biden administration’s opposition to Texas’ border security measures, which aim to prevent a massive influx of illegal aliens, has sparked this joint statement. The governors assert that President Biden and his administration have left Americans and the nation vulnerable to an unprecedented wave of illegal immigration.
“Instead of upholding the rule of law and securing the border, the Biden Administration has attacked and sued Texas for stepping up to protect American citizens from historic levels of illegal immigrants, deadly drugs like fentanyl, and terrorists entering our country,” the statement reads.
The governors express their solidarity with Governor Greg Abbott and the State of Texas, emphasizing the importance of utilizing every available tool and strategy, including razor wire fences, to secure the border. They argue that the Biden administration’s failure to enforce existing immigration laws and its illegal mass parole of migrants who entered the country unlawfully necessitate such measures.
“Texas has every legal justification to protect the sovereignty of our states and our nation,” the governors assert, citing the U.S. Constitution’s recognition of states’ right to self-defense.

The governors commend the state of Texas for taking decisive action to protect its citizens and uphold the rule of law. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has taken several steps to address the border crisis, including deploying National Guard troops and requesting assistance from other states. The Republican governors express their readiness to assist Texas in any way possible to alleviate the burden it faces due to the federal government’s negligence.
The joint statement emphasizes the importance of maintaining secure borders to protect national security and public safety. The governors argue that a weak and porous border not only allows for the illegal entry of individuals, but also facilitates the smuggling of drugs, weapons, and human trafficking. They believe that these activities pose a significant threat to both the citizens of Texas and the entire country.
Furthermore, the governors highlight the financial strain that the border crisis has placed on Texas and other states. They contend that the federal government’s failure to address the issue adequately has resulted in increased costs for healthcare, education, law enforcement, and social services. The burden of these expenditures falls upon the already overburdened taxpayers, who are effectively subsidizing the federal government’s negligence.
The governors call upon President Biden and his administration to acknowledge the severity of the border crisis and take immediate action to rectify the situation. They urge the federal government to provide Texas with the necessary resources and support to regain control of its border. Additionally, the governors demand reforms to the immigration system that prioritize national security, ensure the efficient and fair processing of legal immigration, and discourage illegal entry.
In a show of solidarity and unity, the Republican governors emphasize the need for a cooperative and bipartisan approach to address the border crisis. They invite governors from across the political spectrum to join them in their efforts to secure our borders and protect the well-being of all Americans.
In conclusion, the joint statement by twenty-five Republican governors echoes the concerns and protests of Texas as it fights to secure its border. They stand in full support of Texas’ efforts and condemn the Biden administration’s opposition to border security measures. The governors emphasize the importance of maintaining secure borders to protect national security, public safety, and the financial well-being of states. They call upon President Biden to acknowledge the severity of the crisis and take immediate action. The statement serves as a united front, appealing for a cooperative and bipartisan approach to address the border crisis and ensure the safety and prosperity of the United States.
