Border Invasion: How Texas Can Stop It
by Sydnie Henry
As the Biden administration’s open-border policies create chaos on the southwest border, some state lawmakers have advocated for a strategy that would sidestep the federal government to address the problem. State Sen. Bob Hall (R–Edgewood) recently interviewed Ken Cuccinelli, former attorney general of Virginia and senior fellow at the Center for Renewing America.
“Every town is a border town now with this open-borders policy,” said Cuccinelli. He believes the American people cannot wait any longer for the federal government to act, and he has developed a plan for states to declare an invasion and secure the border themselves.
