Governor Abbott joins Vice President Vance, key officials for border security roundtable in Eagle Pass

Texas – Governor Greg Abbott participated in a border security roundtable at the Eagle Pass Border Patrol Station, joining Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and other federal, state, and local leaders. The roundtable focused on President Donald Trump’s ongoing homeland and border security operations.

“Texas serves as a model for border security,” Governor Abbott said. “As President Trump said in his speech last night, all our country needed to secure the border was a new President.

I thank Vice President Vance, Secretary Hegseth, and Director Gabbard for their support and for traveling to Texas to see our coordinated border security efforts firsthand.

Texas will continue to work with the Trump Administration to arrest, detain, and deport illegal immigrants and stop the flow of deadly drugs like fentanyl into our nation.”

The roundtable was also attended by Border Patrol Chief Mike Banks, U.S. Acting Commissioner for U.S. Customs and Border Protection Acting Commissioner Pete Flores, Congressman Tony Gonzales, Attorney General Ken Paxton, Eagle Pass Mayor Rolando Salinas, Jr., National Border Patrol Council President Paul Perez, and other officials.
