Legislators visit U.S. Mexico border condemning 'drowning devices' put in river


INTRO:

Texas legislators visited the U.S. Mexico border region of Eagle Pass on Tuesday, to speak out against the state's Lone Star policy, that includes a barrier put in the middle of the Rio Grande river to block migrants.

People trying to cross over have died in the waterway including one person whose body was found caught in the barrier last week.
