Does this governor-elect have any teeth in his words or is it all political tongue wagging?
In an interview, Gov.-elect Greg Abbott, the current attorney general, said Texas Obama’s frequent vows to invoke questionable executive power to change immigration law have forced Texans to prepare for yet another “surge” of illegals crossing from the south.
Texas has shouldered considerable expense dealing with the problem of illegal immigration that’s being worsened by the White House, Abbott said, and one horn of any lawsuit would be getting the federal government to pay for problems it’s causing.
But he said the larger point is that immigration laws are made by the country from Capitol Hill, not the White House.
“We’re expecting the White House will not cross the line,” he said. “If the president crosses the line, he’s going to see an overwhelming rejection of what he’s trying to do.”
The majority of the people DO NOT want this, let’s see if the President cares.
Get these millions of criminals out of our state and prisons.
Don’t mess with Texas, DC!!! The voters have just spoken, stop Obama’s dangerous agenda!!!
Pres doesn’t care, he wants it and that’s all he cares about!! 🙁
You idiots voted for Abbott. Now live with “it.”
Matthew Gilmore, immigration done properly is fine. Let people come to this country but in the way stated by the laws of this country which definitely does not include simply crossing the border and getting to stay. And the thing is those checkpoints aren’t enough because the drugs and weapons and such still make it in here by avoiding those checkpoints. The border(s) needs to be secured first then we can discuss the matter of those currently here. Those barriers are there for a reason. Try moving to any other country and see if they are as understanding.
Abbott sues the national government over everything.
Another”pill my finger” moment from the governor’s mansion. Geez
Matthew Gilmore it’s not as much about the taking of my job as it is about the taking of my pay check. The vast majority are uneducated and lack the skill or ability to contribute to our society with out vast training,learning new communication skills and all that cost money. If they can’t earn money then it is expected of people like myself who WORK AND EARN to foot the bill for the reeducation of these people.
This President’s Legacy…”Lawless”!!!
