Fifteen Republican governors and a conservative convoy of truckers that has dubbed itself “God’s Army” will descend on the southern border this weekend as part of separate events to draw attention to the illegal immigration crisis.

Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) will host leaders from 14 other red states in the McAllen, Texas, area of the Rio Grande Valley on Sunday afternoon for a briefing on the state’s effort to bolster security at the Mexico border and hold a press conference about the impact of “President Joe Biden’s reckless open border policies.”
