This *will* be an issue in the upcoming GOP gubernatorial primary. From GOP challenger Don Huffines:
This is the Texas Border under Greg Abbott.
How many criminals like this get through each day without getting caught?
We need a courageous Governor of Texas who doesn’t ask the federal government for permission to secure the border. https://t.co/mzPCRYso62

Could this become an issue for Gov. Greg Abbott?
When I am Governor of Texas I will use Article I, Section 10 of the US Constitution to secure the Texas Border. I will never ask permission from the federal government.

“When I am Governor of Texas I will do whatever it takes to secure our border. And I won’t ask the federal government for permission”:
Dangerous criminals are crossing the Texas Border by the hour.
We are being invaded and neither Joe Biden nor Greg Abbott will stop it.

Well, this could get interesting:
This is the Texas Border under Greg Abbott.
The majority of those Haitians? Caught and released.
Those folks Greg Abbott said he would arrest? Caught and released.
It’s time for courageous leadership.https://t.co/jOpqg5qER9
