As Texas continues to grapple with an ongoing crisis at the southern border, now into its third year, Republican-led states are stepping up by sending troops, law enforcement and other resources to help secure the southern border. Nebraska, Florida, Tennessee and Mississippi are all sending resources.

Tennessee announced a deployment of 100 National Guard members, while Nebraska announced the deployment of 10 state troopers.

 

"America continues to face an unprecedented border crisis that threatens our nation’s security and the safety of Tennesseans," Tenn. Gov. Bill Lee said in a statement on Wednesday. "The federal government owes Americans a plan to secure our country, and in the meantime, states continue to answer this important call to service. I am again authorizing the Tennessee National Guard to help secure the Southern border, and I commend these troops for providing critical support."
