Gov. Abbott: Razor Wire Has Reduced Migrant Entries

The razor wire that Texas has put up at a park on the border with Mexico has resulted in a “massive reduction” in migrant crossings in the area, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.”

Abbott, who has had an ongoing feud with the Biden administration over illegal crossings at the border, said that the governors of other states “are rallying around Texas to support our ongoing right to self-defense, and the deployment of this razor wire that has led to a massive reduction in inflow. The area where we have occupied this park in Eagle Pass, Texas, that we put up the razor wire, there used to be 3,000 or 4,000 people crossing that area a day.”

Abbot pointed out that, however, “for the past three days, we have averaged just three people crossing that area. The point is: If we put up resistance, we show that we can secure the border. Joe Biden should not be stopping that.”
