Texas Gov. Abbott writes to VP Kamala Harris, demanding answers on border crisis

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott says he wants answers regarding the crisis along the U.S.-Mexico border – and he’s seeking them from Vice President Kamala Harris.

"Now that President Biden has named you Border Czar in charge of the administration’s response, I want to express to you the threats and challenges caused by this administration’s open border policies," Abbott wrote in the letter, which carried Tuesday’s date. "These policies embolden and enrich cartels, smugglers, and human traffickers who continue to ramp up their criminal operations," Abbott continued." In many cases, these criminals lure unaccompanied minors into inhumane conditions and expose them to abuse and terror."
