FILE - In a June 10, 2021 file photo, Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds speaks with community leaders during a visit in Oskaloosa, Iowa. Agreements between Iowa and Texas show Iowa is donating the use of state troopers and their equipment at no cost to Texas to fight crime along the U.S. border with Mexico. Despite that language, a spokesman for Reynolds says there still is a chance Texas could eventually pick up the costs after the mission concludes.
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) Gov. Kim Reynolds said Monday that Iowa will cover the cost of troopers sent to Texas to fight crime along the U.S. border with Mexico, confirming the state would fund the mission after the release of agreements showing the effort would come at “no cost to Texas.”
