You know this is going to back fire on Texas, states might require permits or taxes to travel to and from a state.
They can't. several supreme court cases already give aeright to travel. Immigration belongs to the federal government
Somebody should explain that to all the Texas towns trying to ban traveling out of state for an abortion.
I don’t think those are gonna work either.
Which ones
Just put toll booths in at the border to Illinois from all directions. It's almost impossible to travel across the u.s. without going through Illinois or going way out of your way to avoid it.
I've been all over the US and pretty sure I've never been in or through Illinois with exception to flights. I think you're greatly overestimating the size of Illinois and underestimating available options of US driving travel.
If you want to go around you'll have to drive through Kentucky or through the Michigan UP Mackinaw bridge or through Canada. There's a lot of freight that goes through Illinois as well as coming in/going out from ORD.
Tons of freight moves along i40 as well. It never approaches Illinois. You might be familiar with the traversal lanes up there, but there are several main thoroughfares south of there. 40, 20 and 10 all have tons of e/w traffic. All are south of Illinois. It's not that hard to avoid one medium sized state.
