Overview

• Governor Greg Abbott demands Vice President Kamala Harris designate Tren de Aragua as a foreign terrorist organization during her visit to Houston.
• Abbott's call follows the murder of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray by alleged members of the Venezuelan gang in Texas.
• Abbott accuses the Biden-Harris administration of enabling the entry of over 11 million illegal immigrants, including dangerous criminals, due to open border policies.
• Texas has already designated Tren de Aragua as a terrorist organization and launched operations to disrupt their activities.
• The Biden-Harris administration has previously labeled the gang a transnational criminal organization but has not declared them a terrorist group.
