Texas Gov. Greg Abbott unveiled the first section of the state’s new border wall, while also blasting President Joe Biden for not doing his part in securing the southern border.
“Texas is taking what truly is unprecedented action by any state ever, for a state to build a wall on our border to secure and safeguard the sovereignty of the United States, as well as our own state,” Abbott said during a press conference on Saturday, according to the Austin American-Statesman.
“This unprecedented action is needed for one single reason,” Abbott said while speaking in front of a new section of the Texas border wall in Rio Grande City. “That’s because the Biden administration has failed to do its job as required by the Constitution, as required by laws passed by Congress to enforce the immigration laws of the United States of America.”
