Abbott claims Biden needs a 'backbone' rather than more legislation to fix border crisis

Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) slammed President Joe Biden for his border policy, saying the president needs a “backbone” rather than more legislation to secure the United States-Mexico border.

Abbott spoke from Eagle Pass, Texas, on Sunday and was flanked by several Republican governors who have backed his efforts on immigration. The Texas governor led the calls for Biden to act on border policy, dismissing a proposed Senate bill, the text of which is expected to be released on Sunday.
