House Republicans renew push to reimburse Texas for 'Operation Lone Star' border security push
Fox News
House Republicans from the state of Texas are renewing a push to reimburse the state for its efforts to secure the border -- calling for $4.4 billion in funding.
The bill, first introduced last year, would appropriate $4.4 billion from the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security for FY 2024 for the state of Texas "for the costs of Operation Lone Star" incurred in the prior two fiscal years.

The operation surged resources and law enforcement to the border amid the enormous spike in migrant encounters which took place in 2021. Numbers have remained at historic highs since then. The operation included continuing wall construction and busing migrants to "sanctuary cities" within the U.S. He can be reached at adam.shaw2@fox.com or on Twitter.
