Texas sheriffs and residents are urging a trucker convoy scheduled to come to the Texas border on Feb. 3 to stay away, expressing concerns about potential disruptions and aiding criminal activities. The convoy, organized to support securing the southern border, has raised over $130,000 but is not endorsed by state or federal border security efforts.
