Urging Congress to reimburse the State of Texas for costs incurred under Operation Lone Star.

This Texas House resolution (HR 53) requests that the U.S. Congress reimburse the State of Texas $11 billion for border security costs incurred through Operation Lone Star. The resolution states Texas spent this amount over three years to address migrant crossings and drug trafficking, including surveillance, law enforcement support, and managing migration-related activities. It urges Congress to pay this sum, noting the federal government's responsibility for border security, and directs Texas lawmakers to formally submit this request to Congress.
