Tuesday on FNC’s “Fox & Friends,” Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) decried the Biden administration’s handling of the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico southern border.
Gonzales described both President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris as “AWOL” on the matter.
“Things are as bad as it has ever been,” he said. “It hasn’t gotten better. It has only gotten worse. And sadly, Texans feel as if we’re alone, and we see it. We’re doing everything we possibly can to fight against this immigration crisis. But the ‘big guy’ is AWOL. Kamala Harris is AWOL. The federal government is nowhere to be found. Texans are having to take care of Texans as we fight through this pandemic.”

DEL RIO, Texas - Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida visited Texas this weekend for a border security briefing. Abbott and DeSantis met with state and local officials as well as law enforcement in Del Rio on Saturday, July 17
Prior to the visit, DeSantis had deployed Florida law enforcement to Texas to assist in border security efforts after Governor Greg Abbott announced his plans to spend at least $250M on a border wall.
Both governors say the blame falls on the Biden administration for the number of migrants crossing the border, emphasizing that they believe the previous administration s stance on immigration was more effective.
We appreciate you stepping up where the federal government won t and we understand how important this is to not just Texas, but other states, DeSantis added.
The meeting between the two governor s follows a June letter from Abbott and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey in which they issued a call for help from fellow governors under the Emergency Management Assistance Compact
The letter requested additional manpower to help apprehend people attempting to illegally cross the border into the U.S. DeSantis deployed law enforcement officers to the border in response.
Abbott and Ducey s letter said the administration has proven unwilling or unable to do the job of securing the border.
