Gubernatorial candidate Beto O'Rourke toured an empty warehouse Tuesday to highlight how the stoppage of trade at the state's Southern border is hurting Texas. Gov. Greg Abbott fired back and said his Democratic rival is in “denial” about the situation on the border.
In what he said to be his fourth visit to the Valley since announcing his bid for governor, Beto O’Rourke stated to audience members at South Texas College’s Pecan Campus that Greg Abbott’s recently announced Texas Department of Public Safety directive of “enhanced safety inspections” at border crossing checkpoints is not only ineffective but hurting business.
