Texas Gov. Abbott: Goal is zero illegal border crossings

(NewsNation) — As the border and immigration continue to be a critical issue ahead of the upcoming election, Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told NewsNation he will continue to take action to prevent people from crossing illegally into his state.

Migrant encounter numbers are down substantially in the Lone Star State but lower isn't good enough. Abbott said that despite the cartel's hold on the border, Texas has control of Texas, and his goal is to make it so not one person crosses illegally into the state.
