Abbott has once again outdone his own past cruelty in his latest maneuver to dehumanize migrants: He is setting literal death traps on the Rio Grande.
That’s why Joaquin is calling on every last one of his supporters to join him in demanding the Administration act now to save human lives at the border.
How many more people will die at the border because of Greg Abbott’s inhumane and abhorrent behavior?
His monstrous policies call for Texas troops at the border to push migrants back into the Rio Grande, putting children, mothers, the disabled and injured, and so many others at risk of drowning (San Antonio Express News).
We cannot allow for this to stand. Extreme Republicans’ relentless fear mongering about migrants is putting thousands of lives in serious danger.
There is no justification for the disgusting policies Greg Abbott has chosen to enforce at the border other than outright cruelty. We must hold him accountable for this dehumanizing and life-threatening treatment of human lives.
His behavior at the border is not what our state or our country has or should stand for.
