"Texas Governor Initiates Construction of 80-Acre Military Base Camp in Eagle Pass to Deter Migrants and Support National Guard"
Texas is constructing an 80-acre military base camp in Eagle Pass, near the Mexico border, to accommodate 2,300 soldiers in an effort to combat illegal immigration. Governor Greg Abbott aims to amass a large army to deter migrants from entering the country, citing a surge in illegal border crossings. The base will include living facilities, command posts, and barriers, and Texas has also passed a law allowing state forces to arrest and deport illegal migrants, a move challenged by the Biden administration and civil rights groups.
