A couple years back we were in El Paso for my niece’s wedding. There were checkpoints setup on the streets each night I was there, and at different places. I suspect it was for the illegals, but not so sure. We were waved through each time.

They most likely were for illegals. I experience them around El Paso and elsewhere around the border occasionally. There was some talk of some officials wanting to expand them beyond the border, but the companies that rely on the illegals in Texas apparently threw some cash around to the politicians and it shut that talk down quickly.
