Attorney General of Oklahoma, Gentner Drummond, made the announcement on Thursday that he would support Texas while urging that the state’s immigration problems be addressed.
” The Biden Administration refuses to stable the borders, so the state must work to protect our people”, Drummond said. Oklahoma suffers the effects of our porous borders day in and day out. A legitimate victory for Texas will open the door for regional legislation enforcement in Oklahoma and all over the nation.
In Texas, Senate Bill 4 ( HB 4), which was passed in 2023, authorizes Texas law enforcement to deport and deport immigrants who cross into the state illegally from Mexico.
If successful, Oklahoma and various state will be able to formally declare illegal immigration a state violence and impose state laws on state borders. House and Senate leaders have already indicated their willingness to develop related policy to safeguard Oklahoma.
Speaker Charles McCall, R-Atoka, announced on Wednesday that he intends to introduce legislation to protect Oklahoma’s border from the continuous illegal immigration issue.  ,
Every state has been transformed into a frontier status as a result of the Biden Administration’s failed policies, according to McCall. Oklahoma is a condition of law and order, and it ought to be the next destination for illegal immigrants who cross the border. In light of recent judge decisions regarding Senate Bill 4 leaving Texas, I’m introducing legislation right away to safe Oklahoma’s southern neighbors in the same way. Oklahoma may be prepared to protect its borders from anyone who crosses our country illegally.
According to Drummond and various state attorneys general, states have the authority to enact and enforce laws that do not conflict with federal law. The small states that” Texas essentially has codified federal immigration laws as Texas state legislation.” ” That renders many, if not all, of S. B. 4 in keeping with national legislation, not in discord with it.
