Gov. Jim Pillen claimed the buoys 'don't cause a band aid,' adding, 'and if they do I say 'what the heck, stay on your side of the river.''
At a press conference by the border, Pillen hit out at what he called the"absolute misrepresentation of the buoys," which he branded"hogwash."
Pillen continued:"The buoys are a deterrent, they don't cause a band aid and if they do I say 'what the heck, stay on your side of the river.'" The governor also claimed there has been a"misrepresentation of who's coming [over the border]," adding:"I mean we are fighting cartels that are trying to kill our kids. That's one thing in the United States we all surely agree on, right, is our kids."
He concluded:"Biden administration, federal government, do your dadgum job...follow the leadership of Gov. Abbott."from the Rio Grande, one of which was on one of the floating buoys. However, Andrew Mahaleris, a spokesman for Abbott, denied any migrants had died as a result of the buoys.he said:"These marine barriers help deter illegal river crossings, redirecting migrants to use one of the 29 international bridges on the Texas-Mexico border where they can safely and legally cross. No one drowns on a bridge."
