Des Moines, Iowa – Texas Governor Greg Abbott says the Iowa National Guard and state law enforcement officers Iowa’s governor deployed to the southern border earlier this year denied illegal entry to countless migrants.
Abbott was the keynote speaker last Saturday in Des Moines at Governor Kim Reynolds’ annual campaign fundraiser.
Abbott says there’s been total chaos at the Texas border during the Biden-Harris Administration and he’s been forced to call upon other states for help.
Reynolds has deployed Iowa State Troopers, Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation agents and the Iowa National Guard to Texas on three occasions, starting in 2021.
Reynolds and other top Iowa GOP leaders used last weekend’s event to repeat their calls for Iowa Republicans to vote early. Iowans may start voting at county auditors’ offices this coming Wednesday, October 16th.
