AUSTIN, Texas (CN) Former President Donald Trump got around 450 miles of border wall built. Texas Governor Greg Abbott said the state will add hundreds more miles, launching the project on Wednesday with a $250 million down payment.
“Make no mistake,” Abbott said, “the border crisis we are dealing with is a direct result of the open-border policies that have been put into place by the Biden administration. Remember that the border was far more under control under the Trump administration.”
