Despite the best efforts of democrats, Texas has solved the border crisis in Texas by simply closing the border at non-legal crossings.
However, it still remains a crisis on a national level as democrats currently control the white house and California, and choose to leave the border open in those areas.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) said in a Tuesday interview with NewsNation’s Elizabeth Vargas that the immigration and border issue in Texas has been “solved” but still exists nationally.
“We’ve solved the Texas problem, but the United States problem — that requires a new president to make sure that we are actually going to secure our border,” Abbott said on “Elizabeth Vargas Reports.”
Abbott has continually clashed with the Biden administration over the influx of migrants arriving at the Texas-Mexico border. After Vice President Harris took over the Democratic ticket from President Biden, Abbott said he thinks the state needs to “triple” the razor wire barriers at the border.
In the interview, Abbott mentioned some of his most controversial border actions.
Last month, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Abbott could keep the floating barrier in the Rio Grande. Installed more than a year ago, the buoy barrier is meant to dissuade migrants from crossing into the state.
The Biden administration has accused Texas of violating the federal Rivers and Harbor Act and said immigration enforcement is the purview of the federal government.
Abbott said people can expect to see “an increase” of the buoys in the Rio Grande but said he is waiting for the final court decision “before making that investment.”
Abbott said migrants are now coming from other U.S. states such as Arizona and New Mexico.
He said his state has begun putting razor wire on its borders with those states, to keep migrants and the cartel out of Texas.
