As Governor, I have a responsibility to protect the people of Texas—a responsibility that grows more urgent by the day while the Biden Administration is knowingly importing COVID across our southern border. https://t.co/bPlmV6RaLZ — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

While Biden is openly pondering shutdowns and mandates on U.S. citizens, the Administration is knowingly worsening the problem by importing COVID at extreme rates across the southern border. Read my full response to AG Garland: https://t.co/RijVboU5iP https://t.co/SmwVyXEDUE — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Honored to speak at the commencement ceremony for the @TxDPS A-2021 class. On behalf of the Lone Star State, we are so grateful for your sacrifice and commitment to serving your communities. Our state will be made safer by the brave men & women graduating today. https://t.co/KqIDEGpHy5 — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

The Biden admin. fundamentally misunderstands what's happening at the border. They are jeopardizing the health & safety of Texans on a daily basis by refusing to follow the law. I will take every step consistent with the law to fulfill my duty to protect all Texans. https://t.co/CHn4aN17iD — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

I issued an executive order providing uniformity in Texas' COVID response—we must rely on personal responsibility, not gov't mandates. Texans will decide for themselves whether they'll wear masks & open businesses. Vaccines are the best defense & will always remain voluntary. https://t.co/3lIOt5BYZ0 — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Biden has his head in the sand when it comes to the border. His policies are allowing drugs, weapons, & COVID to spread into our communities. @TxDPS & @TexasGuard have been deployed to stop the surge of illegal activity at the border & restore the rule of law. https://t.co/c1dQAEB3jo — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

The most precious freedom is life itself. I'm proud to join my fellow governors in protecting the unborn by filing an amicus brief supporting Mississippi's ban on abortions after 15 weeks. Read the full brief: https://t.co/5GDp3XcFBZ https://t.co/Ee3SsxKTFd — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

I issued an executive order restricting transportation of migrants who pose a risk of carrying COVID into Texas. @TxDPS is ordered to stop & reroute, or impound any vehicle being used to transport illegal migrants who have been detained by @CBP. https://t.co/8UQ3gmKIis https://t.co/wUHSIIRQYe — PolitiTweet.org

Today we lost a great friend and a remarkable Texan. ZZ Top’s Bassist Dusty Hill Dead at 72 Truly a music legend. https://t.co/VVkJ67E7lN — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

The time for government mask mandates is over—now is the time for personal responsibility. In May, I signed an executive order prohibiting mask mandates by gov't entities. Every Texan has the right to choose whether they will wear a mask or have their children wear masks. — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

I'm ordering @TexasGuard to assist @TxDPS in enforcing Texas law by arresting lawbreakers at the border. More manpower is needed to enforce federal & state criminal laws including for criminal trespassing, illegal entry, smuggling, & human trafficking. https://t.co/SOd8lUBxat https://t.co/OnwrEGa0zf — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my dear mother, Doris. Her grace through adversity taught me to overcome the accident that left me in a wheelchair. I thank her for the drive, grit & perseverance she instilled in me. She is forever missed. https://t.co/OxjpAbbudA — PolitiTweet.org

Texas is the home of the 2021 Manufacturing Project of the year award. Texas consistently leads America in economic development awards, and this year is no different. Thanks to the Texans who make this happen!! https://t.co/UZITmObddD — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Meeting with @TDEM, @TXMilitary, @TxDPS, & the Texas Commission on Jail Standards about our plan to catch and jail illegal migrants crossing the border. The Biden administration caused this crisis, Texas is stopping it. https://t.co/S3PLVEp9LO — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

I will keep calling Special Sessions until we address every emergency item—including funding for foster care, property tax relief & bail reform. The Democrats’ decision to break quorum inflicts harm on the very Texans who elected them to serve. https://t.co/CNtyRM2cLS — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

"Gov. Abbott: Texas' New Border Plan 'Catch And Jail' We have a new program contrary to the Biden plan to catch & release. The Texas plan is to catch & to jail. The National Guard & the Texas Dept. of Public Safety are deployed for the mission. https://t.co/5JepgPkav0 — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Covid Vaccinations are on the rise again. In the past 3 weeks the 7-day average of doses provided have increased almost 50%. Most Texans who qualify already have gotten a vaccine. Many others are deciding to get one now to protect against the fast spreading Delta variant. — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Biden opened the floodgates on our southern border. Texas is stopping it. The @TexasGuard & @TxDPS have started arresting illegal migrants coming across the border & putting them in jail. No more catch & release. https://t.co/91TJX53bGq — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Texas Provides a Model for Conservative Healthcare Reform. It is a "market-friendly way to help Texans access the care they need." It reduces prescription drug costs, increases access to providers & improves outcomes for women and children. https://t.co/JhY7lw32t7 — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Texas Border Wall update: New Border Wall Construction Begins near West Texas Town. This is in addition to the new program to arrest and jail illegal immigrants arrested for trespassing in Texas. https://t.co/dE7z5I5sbH via @BreitbartNews — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

‘Republican governors to the rescue on the economy’ The Texas economy is booming. Businesses are investing in the Lone Star State at a record pace because we've built a framework that allows free enterprise to flourish & hardworking Texans to prosper. https://t.co/dDQnt7PpmX — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Texas is not rolling out the red carpet like the Biden Administration. Illegal migrants caught trespassing into Texas will be arrested & sent to jail. No more catch & release. https://t.co/ZbTAz3mRAC — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Over 100 Texans are representing @TeamUSA in Tokyo. On behalf of all Texans, we are so proud of you. Good luck! #tokyo2020 #Olympics https://t.co/zl2vsP3Mzs — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Texas is named the best place to start a business by @wallethub AGAIN!   Men & women willing to take a risk & stake their future on an idea have long written the story of Texas.   That pioneering spirit fuels our shared prosperity today. https://t.co/OWKO3ybK0X — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

ERCOT is bringing more electric power generation on line during peak demand times. And they are buying more power services than they have in the past & releasing them quicker to the market. These steps will help keep the power grid reliable. https://t.co/5LCKPeqEJH — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Texas has begun arresting illegal immigrants who are trespassing in Texas or vandalizing property & fences. They are now being sent to this jail rather than being released like the Biden Admin. has been doing. We are adding more officers, National Guard & jails. https://t.co/csJt745j3H — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Since the Democrats broke quorum in May, seven Texans have been killed by criminals out on bail.   It's time they stop their partying in DC, come back to Austin, and pass bail reform and other measures to make our communities safer. https://t.co/7VCA6UUXll — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Texas is cracking down on fentanyl in an unprecedented way. With this law, we will help save lives here in Texas and across America. Thank you to Senator @joanhuffman and @CrimeStopHOU for joining me today. https://t.co/Tykn6FRAfp — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

Fentanyl is one of THE deadliest drugs on the street. This year, @TxDPS has seized enough fentanyl to kill 70M people. That's everyone in TX & CA combined. I signed a law enhancing penalties for possessing, manufacturing, & distributing this drug. Thank you @joanhuffman. https://t.co/YF1EF3jauB — PolitiTweet.org

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX

I'm with @JoanHuffman & Crime Stoppers of Houston Deputy Director Nichole Christoph to sign anti-fentanyl legislation into law. #SB768 enhances criminal penalties for manufacturing & distributing fentanyl in TX. 📺 LIVE from Crime Stoppers of Houston: https://t.co/4vAxTOurdB — PolitiTweet.org
