Texas is getting serious about border security — something the national government in Washington, D.C. has failed to do. The state is allocating a billion dollars to fund border initiatives and will establish a Governor’s Task Force on Border and Homeland Security with public safety and state government officials.

The goals of the task force will be to curtain people and contraband from crossing the border into Texas. And there will be more arrests.
