Isn’t this against the US constitution? Razor wire along the state border and checkpoints on roads that cross the state border are kind of nuts. I read a comment joking that the wire and road checkpoints were to keep Texan women from escaping to New Mexico, which got a bitter laugh out of me.

The Texas GOP floats that idea every few years because they’re a bunch of whiny piss babies and think being rebellious is cool and edgy
