DEL RIO, TX – U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced late Friday that the Office of Field Operations (OFO) Del Rio Port of Entry will temporarily close and re-route traffic from Del Rio to Eagle Pass to more effectively manage resources and ensure uninterrupted flow of trade and travel.
Consistent with established cross border travel management procedures, traffic that normally uses the Amistad Dam International Bridge and the Del Rio International Bridge will be directed 57 miles east to the Eagle Pass Port of Entry.
The Val Verde County Judge voiced his frustration earlier this week on social media.
This temporary closure and shift is necessary in order for CBP to respond to urgent safety and security needs presented by an influx of illegal immigrants into Del Rio and is effective immediately.
It will advance and protect national interests and help ensure the safety of the traveling public, commercial traffic, and CBP employees and facilities.

Well, it's early afternoon on a Saturday and there isn't anything posted below this story. I guess there comes a time in any catastrophe, crises or tragedy that complaining or protesting is simply restating over and over the points and complaints that have been made several times. The liberals can only think up so many excuses and the same thing applies.
I can only hope this administration will come to their senses and help put a stop to what they have created. I'm not sure if this is being allowed to happen in order to punish Texas for being a red state, to continue to punish President Trump or to allow in as many illegals in as possible so that biden can grant amnesty. This would create a new huge democrat voting base because after this first term, I'm not sure Americans will want to vote for this administration ever again.

PermalinkYou already supplied the link. I'm sorry if you didn't check any external links supplied there or bother reading the one you linked earlier. There is a LOT of information there. Maybe you should spend the rest of your Sunday reading it a bit more. I'm headed out for dinner since I already did.
