Weeks ago, Texas governor Greg Abbott said in an interview that the goal of Operation Lone Star is to reduce the number of illegal entries to Texas to zero. To achieve that goal he has taken several measures ranging from busing migrants to Democratic-led states up onrth to installing razor wire, a measure he recently said will be tripled to make the border safer.
The cost of the operation has been reported to be over $11 billion. But other states have also been pitching in with measures of their own.
