Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton held a press conference in Mission on Wednesday after meeting with law enforcement officials over the increase of migrants crossing the southern border.
Lavaca County Sheriff Micah Harmon, Refugio County Sheriff Raul ‘Pinky’ Gonzalez, and Jackson County Sheriff A.J. Louderback also attended the event.
Sheriffs from the Rio Grande Valley were not present at the press conference.
Both Hidalgo and Cameron County sheriffs said they were not invited to speak about or if their deputies are being affected by the increase of immigrants. However, the neighboring county sheriffs said the effect in their areas is overwhelming.
