TYLER, Texas (KETK) – Smith County Sheriff Larry Smith, along with other Texas coroner’s, hands- delivered a notice to Gov. Greg Abbott endorsed the laws and measures that have been implemented to stable the southern border on Wednesday.
Our dangerous, turbulent Texas border crisis is reportedly designated as a United States Constitutional Crisis in the text that begins with” We request.”
” We just wanted the governor to know, we did n’t want him to be out there on an island by himself, that we were in full support of what he’s doing”, Smith said.
Smith claimed that his own backyard is witnessing a frontier problems.
” The deadly drugs that are coming across, the sex trafficking, and everything else that’s coming across that we do n’t stand for in the state of Texas,” Smith said.
In 2021, the express implemented Operation Lone Star, to try and stop illegal immigration.
Although Abbott has reported a significant decrease in the number of individuals entering Texas since then, Smith claimed that law enforcement solutions are in short supply.
” When they pull troopers from there to every other week, go to the frontier, our sheriff department has to move in and do the work, that’s often the troopers do, which we’re pleased to do, but we cannot survive that”, Smith said.
Abbott and law enforcement are urging the Biden administration to uphold the Constitution and assist in this issue.
” The state Constitution is put in place is working, our US Constitution is not working as far as emigration is concerned”, Smith said.
Smith said he understands that the magistrates need to take their time to decide, but he is hoping the result may be favorable because SB4 is still being halted by appeals authorities.
