For years I’ve thought that the state of Texas could do more to secure its border with Mexico.

Nearly a decade ago, when Obama was president and Rick Perry was governor of Texas, I wrote an article entitled, “Texas’ Rick Perry Could Seal The Border Himself—If He Had The Will.”

It’s now 2024 and Texas Governor Greg Abbott has his border program, which is centered in the town of Eagle Pass, across the Rio Grande from Piedras Negras, Mexico.

Abbott has the Texas National Guard on the border. As a Texas National Guard veteran myself, I wish them well.

Some say Abbott isn’t doing enough, and certainly, we all wish more could be done.

But consider that he is doing more than any other border governor.
