Americans Donate $55 Million to Fund Texas Gov. Abbott’s Border Wall, Half-Million to Transport Migrants to Other States – By Craig Bannister (CNS News) / Dec 28, 2023
Americans have donated more than $55 million dollars to Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s “Operation Lone Star” to help fund construction of a border wall in his state, which is being overwhelmed by illegal immigration.
“Join our historic efforts to secure the border,” the governor’s Operation Lone Star website requests, providing links to donation pages for border wall funding, funding to transport illegal aliens to so-called “sanctuary cities” outside the state who claim to welcome them, and border security funding.
A total of $56 million has been donated, as of December 8, 2023:
- $55,427,025 to help fund the border wall,
- $460,196 to help fund transportation of migrants,
- $102,689 to help fund Texas border security
