Governor Abbott Champions Support For Border Patrol Agents In Houston

Statement

Governor Greg Abbott last night championed Texas' support for U.S. Border Patrol agents in their efforts to secure the border during the keynote address at the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC) Dinner in Houston. Addressing more than 220 agents and their families, the Governor thanked agents for their work to keep America safe and promised that Texas will always have their backs--even when the Biden Administration does not.

"Thank you to the National Border Patrol Council and Brandon Judd for being a huge help to me and Texas as we work to secure the border," said Governor Abbott. "America's Border Patrol agents are the unsung heroes of our country, putting your lives on the line each and every day to secure our border and uphold our nation's sovereignty. Instead of defending you, Washington leaves you all undermanned and underpaid. I am here tonight to say thank you, let you know that Texas appreciates all you do to keep our country safe, and that you have a Governor who has your backs."
