Texas state officials are under investigation for their efforts to deter illegal crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border, which have been criticized by human rights groups and the Biden administration for placing migrants, including children, at risk of drowning or being cut by razor wire. The internal complaint, now under investigation, is in relation to Operation Lone Star, a sprawling border effort led by Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a Republican. It is yet to be seen what action, if any, will be taken in response to the allegations.
