BATON ROUGE—The Louisiana Freedom Caucus released the following statement today in support of Gov. Jeff Landry’s efforts to help secure the southern border that Texas and Mexico share:
“Securing this nation’s borders is a crucial and primary duty of our government. The Louisiana Freedom Caucus supports Gov. Jeff Landry in his efforts to help do the job President Biden refuses to do: secure our border. This is a blatant disregard for the safety and sovereignty of the American people,” said Beryl Amedée, Chairman of the Louisiana Freedom Caucus.
“Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has declared the crisis situation at the southern border with Mexico an invasion. A reported eight million people have poured across the southern border in the past three years, unabated, since Biden reversed via Executive Order the successful border policies of President Donald Trump. We should stand with Texas to repel this sea of humanity coming across our border in which all sorts of ugly things hide,” Amedée said.
