In a heated exchange with Sen. Ted Cruz in late March, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said he had no knowledge of the use of wristbands by Mexican cartels at the Texas-Mexico border.
Texas is arguably the hardest-hit state when it comes to border issues, and officials in the Lone Star State don't accept Mayorkas' claims of ignorance.
"If you don't know what's going on down here, you should be impeached," said Jimmy Fullen, constable of Precinct 2 in Galveston County, Texas, calling Mayorkas' actions "Treasonous."
Property owners along the Texas border are experiencing notable property damage and loss, for which until recently there was little or no relief.
In response, Texas state Sen. Mayes Middleton co-authored a bill passed by the Texas Legislature in June that looks to reduce the invasive harm by protecting property owners.
Prior to serving in the Texas Senate, Middleton vowed to minimize the impact of illegal immigration by keeping border security issues a top priority while representing Galveston and Chambers counties in the Texas House of Representatives.
