The urging comes as the Republican governor prepares to announce Wednesday...
FILE - Texas Gov. Greg Abbott speaks during a news conference, March 10, 2022, in Weslaco, Texas. Former Trump administration officials are pressing Abbott to declare an"invasion" along the U.S.-Mexico border as justification to give thousands of state troopers and National Guard members sweeping new powers to turn back migrants. Abbott says he will he announce Wednesday, April 6, 2022,"unprecedented actions" to deter migrants coming to Texas but did not elaborate.
Tom Homan, the former acting director for Immigration and Customs Enforcement under Trump, said at a border security conference in San Antonio last week he had spoken with Abbott but gave no indication about whether the two-term governor supported the idea. Driving the effort on the right is the Center for Renewing America, a conservative policy think tank led by former Trump administration officials. It includes Ken Cuccinelli, an immigration hard-liner and former Homeland Security official under Trump. He argued that states are entitled to defend themselves from immediate danger or invasion, as it is defined by the “invasion clause,” under the “states self-defense clause.
Cuccinelli said in practice, he envisions the plan would look similar to the enforcement of Title 42, which circumvented U.S. obligations under American law and international treaty to provide asylum. He said he has not spoken with Abbott and said the governor's current sweeping border mission, known as Operation Lone Star, has put little dent in the number of people crossing the border.
