Texas Gov. Greg Abbott ordered DPS tactical strike teams to assist the Trump administration's efforts to go after illegal immigrants inside the state, as Austin law enforcement officials vow to not comply.

The governor said the teams will help find, arrest and deport people who entered the country illegally and have active warrants for their arrests.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott deployed the troops to the Rio Grande Valley, where he said they'll work side-by-side with U.S. Border Patrol agents to keep migrants from illegally entering the country. Some of those troops left from the U.S. Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base in Fort Worth Monday morning. The others left from a base in Houston.
