Wyoming’s Governor Mark Gordon announced Thursday that he will dispatch law enforcement personnel to the southern border in Texas to help the Lone Star State grapple with the invasion of foreigners that has been happening since the Biden-Harris administration took office.
Simply seeking asylum is not a guarantee that the claim is legitimate.
Governor Gordon will deploy 10 Wyoming Highway Patrol Troopers to Texas. The Wyoming Office of Homeland Security will coordinate the transfer. During their 14-day deployment, the state troopers will provide law enforcement and emergency assistance in Texas. Two deputies from the Natrona County Sheriff’s Department will head to Texas later this year.
Governor Gordon said in a statement, “Wyoming is committed to closing the open Biden-Harris border. As part of our ongoing relationship with Texas, we will supply resources as they are requested while also making sure we are safe here at home. We are immensely grateful for the willingness of Wyoming law enforcement members and their families to assist in this important effort to help secure our southern border.”
This year’s deployment of state troopers follows a similar partnership with Texas, one year ago, to help with border crisis that the Biden Administration supported with campaign speeches in 2020.
In August 2023, Governor Gordon authorized the deployment of eight Department of Corrections and local law enforcement personnel to provide support along the southern border. Following last year’s deployment, Texas Rangers traveled to Wyoming earlier this year to provide valuable training to Wyoming law enforcement officers.
During the 2024 Legislative session, $750,000 was allocated to the Governor’s Office for expenses to assist border state law enforcement efforts.
