- Governor Greg Abbott of Texas authorized the deployment of more than 5,000 National Guard soldiers and 2,000 police officers.
- This action aims to ensure order during upcoming protests and to prevent lawlessness similar to incidents in Los Angeles.
- The demonstrations oppose President Trump's immigration policies and initially began in Los Angeles.
- Unlike California, where National Guard deployment is controversial, Abbott made the decision independently in Texas.
Peaceful protests are part of the fabric of our nation, but Texas will not tolerate the lawlessness we have seen in Los Angeles.— Governor Greg Abbott on the planned protests against the US government.
