Ahead of trip to Texas, DeSantis highlights Florida’s role in border security

Ahead of his trip to the Texas border, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis highlighted his state’s role in aiding Texas’ border security efforts through Operation Lone Star.
 

The governor, as part of his presidential campaign, will be in Eagle Pass, Texas, on Monday to discuss border security efforts.

This trip follows a border security event he held in Arizona announcing the creation of a strike force with multiple sheriff's departments nationwide to combat crime coming from the southern border.

Over a month ago, on the same day Texas Gov. Greg Abbott called on fellow governors for help to secure the Texas-Mexico border, DeSantis was among the first to pledge support. Within a week, hundreds of Florida boots were on the ground in key areas along the Texas-Mexico border.
