    You seriously think Texas has to deal with more immigration than the entirety of the rest of the U.S.?

    Critical thinking really needs to be taught in school.

      I think that TEXAS has to deal with illegal immigration across the TEXAS boarder into TEXAS. I said nothing about anywhere else and the amount of immigrants they have to deal with.

        The Border Patrol and Customs (in the Department of Homeland Security) is actually responsible for securing borders. States do not get to decide how their borders are enforced.

        We all have to deal with illegal immigration, most of which doesn’t even happen on the southern border. We manage to do it without building death traps or tricking people into getting on busses and sending them to states we don’t like.

        I know Texas and Abbot think they’re special but they’re wrong.
