WASHINGTON —
Texas members of Congress reacted swiftly to President Donald Trump’s announcement Tuesday that he planned to order the military to the U.S.-Mexico border until he can build a wall.
“Ignoring the law, the cost to taxpayers, and umpteen campaign promises, Trump’s effort to militarize our border is just another of his bad border ideas. Neither a parade in Washington glorifying him nor parading on the border are tasks to which our military should be diverted.”
— U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin
