Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced construction has started on the STATE FUNDED Wall that will take up $1billion in state money and $54 million from private sector gifts. Abbott has aimed to crack down on migration through his Operation Lone Star Initiative, which utilizes Texas' National Guard and Department of Public Safety. The initiative has already placed physical hurdles, like steel shipping containers, on borderlines to block migrants and awarded a $162 million contract to Posillico Civil Inc., an engineering company.
