Sen. Dahm files resolution supporting Texas, encouraging governor to extend military support

OKLAHOMA CITY – On Wednesday, Sen. Nathan Dahm, R-Broken Arrow, filed a concurrent resolution to support Gov. Greg Abbott and the state of Texas against the foreign invasion on the Southern border. 

“The rogue Biden regime is doing whatever it can to destabilize our country,” Dahm said. “This is not incompetence; it is a calculated effort to flood our nation with lawbreaking foreigners. Unlike the Biden regime – who is actively attempting to prevent Texas from defending its border – we stand with Texas.”

Senate Concurrent Resolution 17 offers “the support of the State of Oklahoma to the Republic of Texas in defending their southern border from the lawless invasion of foreigners as well as from the lawless actions of the federal government refusing to secure the border.”

“As I have stated many times before: we cannot count on those in the swamp to protect our rights, we must protect them ourselves,” Dahm said. “Governor Abbott appears to share that sentiment, and has bravely decided to do what is best for his state and stand against this foreign invasion fomented by the Biden regime.”

SCR17 encourages Gov. Stitt to “provide any support he deems necessary to the Governor of Texas including but not limited to the Oklahoma National Guard, Oklahoma law enforcement agents, equipment, and supplies.”

“The deliberate actions by the Biden regime to encourage the invasion of Texas – and every other state – highlight their efforts to put America last and destroy our country,” Dahm said. “We are proud to stand with Texas as they fight to stop the invasion created by the Biden regime’s dereliction of duty.”
