RICHMOND — Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin said Wednesday he’s deploying 100 National Guard troops to the U.S. border in Texas, heeding the call of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and following in the footsteps of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis .“The ongoing border crisis facing our nation has turned every state into a border state,” Youngkin said in a news release.
Abbott, who has deployed Texas National Guard troops and a variety of state assets along the state’s border with Mexico, issued a call on May 16 for other states to join in, citing a sharp rise in the flow of migrants as well as concerns about the trafficking of illegal drugs such as fentanyl. DeSantis was quick to respond, announcing that he would send 800 National Guard troops as well as state law enforcement officers.
