Texas Governor Seeks Survey of Property Damages Caused by Migrant Crisis

by RANDY CLARK 2 Jul 2021

Texas Governor Greg Abbott on Thursday urged landowners in border communities affected by the influx of unlawful immigration to complete a Self-Reporting Damage Survey administered by the Division of Emergency Management’s iSTAT tool.

Abbott’s urged in a statement, “I strongly encourage Texas landowners along the border to report any personal property damages they incur due to unlawful immigration, by completing the Self Reporting Damage Survey, our state will be equipped with the necessary data to continue addressing the ongoing crisis at our southern border and provide the support our landowners and communities need to stay safe and secure.”

According to the Governor’ office, the voluntary survey is available in both English and Spanish and does not substitute for damage reports submitted to insurance companies.

The current border surge has impacted ranchers who suffer significant fence damage on a daily basis as a result of migrants attempting to elude apprehension. This fiscal year, more than 250,000 have reportedly escaped.

As the migrants move through the brushland, hunting camps are sometimes burglarized in search of food and water. Farm vehicles, ATVs, and firearms have been reported stolen as well.

Damages incurred are also caused by human smugglers fleeing law enforcement who crash through fencing. According to Deputy Constable Manuel Sauceda of La Salle County, the damage can be costly.

“The damage to game-proof fences typically involves about 6 hours of labor by 3 workers and costs the rancher $3,500.00 to restore the fence. That’s the only way to avoid the loss of livestock or exotic game.” he told Breitbart Texas recently.

According to one sheriff along the border, the pursuits of human smugglers is a daily event often ending in property damage.

Hundreds of miles of our border strewn with trash, feces, urine, diapers, food wrappers, water bottles, shoes, clothes, rape trees, dead bodies, drugs, vomit, and filth from these criminal trespassing parasites who have NO regard for our land, our laws, or our country.

Deport every last damn one of them!

And our rotten government is TAKING our money to pay for them and GIVE them free school, housing, healthcare, drivers licenses, lawyers, motel rooms, food, and citizenship!

HECK NO. GET THEM ALL OUT OF HERE. IT IS DISGRACEFUL.
