Texas Rep Chip Roy Urges Defiance of Supreme Court Ruling on Border Razor Wire

Republican congressman Chip Roy is urging Texas officials to defy a Supreme Court ruling allowing the removal of razor wire along the US-Mexico border, which was installed to deter migrants. The sharp wire has caused injuries and hindered aid efforts, prompting the Biden administration to seek court intervention. This dispute reflects the broader tension between state governments and the administration over border policies, with some conservatives, including Rep. Clay Higgins, supporting Texas. The White House has criticized such rhetoric as unhelpful, while Texas Governor Greg Abbott continues to implement aggressive border measures despite legal challenges.
