“Illegal aliens crossing the Texas-Mexico border at Joe Biden’s invitation leave behind a trail of destruction that harms Texas agricultural land,” said Attorney General Ken Paxton in an official statement. “This program will provide needed relief to Texans whose property is damaged by foreign aliens waved into the country by the federal government.
