Also on Friday, Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) called on Harris to declare the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua a foreign terrorist organization during a visit to Houston.

“Vice President Harris should follow Texas’ lead and immediately designate Tren de Aragua as a foreign terrorist organization,” said Abbott, who declared TDA a foreign terrorist organization in September. “But that’s just a start.
