Governor Greg Abbott is scheduled to visit the Valley on Wednesday and ten other state governors to discuss border security and illegal immigration.

Gilman says the governor shouldn't view the border crisis as a public security threat. Instead, the Biden administration should bring more legal resources to the border to process asylums claims.

Meanwhile across the border in Nuevo León, one of the largest shelters in the region, continues to take in migrants fighting for legalizing their stay in Mexico.
