Contributing sentiments towards policy:

57% : Moses said the court also recognizes, however, the public interest in allowing border patrol agents to address medical emergencies and granted the narrow exception as a result.
53% : The defendants listed on the motion include Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (USCB), USCB Acting Commissioner Troy Miler, U.S. Border Patrol Chief Jason Owners and Juan Bernal, the acting child patrol agent for the USBP's Del Rio Sector.
46% : The Lone Star State filed the suit last week, alleging federal officials are destroying Texas state property by cutting the wire and as a result "undermining" efforts by Texas to ensure state security.
41% : The judge also also sided with Texas on the basis of public interest, arguing the wire deters unlawful activity, including illegal entry, drug smuggling and human trafficking.
