South Dakota, Iowa to Send Law Enforcement Officers to Southern Border
|
[EpochTimes] The Republican governors of South Dakota and Iowa said in recent announcements they will be sending law enforcement personnel to the U.S.—Mexico border. It comes after the governors of Texas and Arizona asked all other states to help with the ongoing border crisis by providing additional manpower.

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem said late Monday that 50 South Dakota National Guard troops will be sent to the southern border.
"Tomorrow morning I’m officially announcing up to 50 National Guard troops to Texas to help secure our border," Noem announced on Twitter. "The Biden administration, the same old faces in slightly different places, the same old ideas, the same old graft

has failed to keep America safe. We shouldn’t be making our own communities vulnerable by sending police to fix Biden’s border crisis."
Noem’s announcement comes several days after the office of Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds announced that Iowa State Patrol officers will be deployed to help with border security efforts. The move was in response to a June 10 request from Texas Gov. Greg Abbott

and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey for more law enforcement manpower.
South Dakota and Iowa now join Florida, Nebraska, and Idaho in committing to send law enforcement to the southern border to help Texas and Arizona.
Abbott and Ducey wrote in their letter, "With your help, we can apprehend more of these perpetrators of state and federal crimes, before they can cause problems in your state." The letter asserted that under a mutual agreement between states, the Emergency Management Assistance Compact, any officers that states send to Texas or Arizona will be given "the same power ... duties, rights, and privileges as are afforded forces of the state in which they are performing emergency services," which will "include the power to arrest migrants colonists who illegally cross the border into our territory."
"My first responsibility is to the health and safety of Iowans and the humanitarian crisis at our nation’s southern border is affecting all 50 states," Reynolds said in a statement on June 24.
"The rise in drugs, human trafficking, and violent mostly peaceful crime has become unsustainable. Iowa has no choice but to act, and it’s why I am honoring Texas’s Emergency Management Assistance Compact following assurances from the Iowa Department of Public Safety that it will not compromise our ability to provide all necessary public safety services to Iowans."
The Iowa governor’s office on June 24 noted that there has been a marked increase in drug trafficking seizures in the state, in particular of methamphetamine and fentanyl, since May last year.
"In Iowa, law enforcement officials are recovering drugs, illegal narcotics, and weapons being smuggled across the nation’s southern border by narco mobs," the office announced.
Reynolds’s office also acknowledged that the Iowa National Guard is currently carrying out a mission with 24 soldiers from Unit 2/34 IBCT to help law enforcement at the southern border. The mission was in response to a request from the federal government under the Trump administration in October 2020.
According to data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, there were 180,034 border crossings in May—the largest number in two decades.
