Governor Greg Abbott (R) said he has deployed additional Texas Highway Patrol troopers to the capital of Austin announced they will end their partnership they had with the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) following a false accusation of trooper misconduct. Abbott sent 30 extra troopers to patrol and respond to calls in Austin.  "This brings the total to 130. We will do all we can to keep the streets of Austin safe," Abbott said. I've deployed 30 additional Texas Department of Public Safety troopers to protect and serve the city of Austin.
