Texas Republican Senator John Cornyn expressed his support for Texas Governor Greg Abbott's efforts to protect the state from illegal immigration during an interview on a news program. Cornyn highlighted that while the federal government has the tools to enforce the law and secure the border, President Joe Biden has abdicated his responsibility and embraced open border policies. The senator emphasized that unless there are consequences for entering the country illegally, the influx of hundreds of thousands of people each month will continue.
Cornyn also addressed Vice President Kamala Harris's role in dealing with immigration issues. He noted that Harris, who was originally designated to address the root causes of immigration, failed to take action despite the opportunity presented by the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, and the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer. The senator emphasized that the laws concerning immigration have not substantially changed since President Trump was in office, and therefore, enforcing the existing laws should be the priority.
