2. Border Security: Texas Rangers play a crucial role in securing the state's border with Mexico, combating drug trafficking, human smuggling, and other illegal activities. They work closely with federal agencies such as the Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

3. Specialized Units: Some Texas Rangers are part of specialized units, such as the SWAT team, bomb squad, or tactical response team. These units handle high-risk situations and provide support to local law enforcement agencies when needed.

4. Intelligence and Analysis: Texas Rangers gather and analyze intelligence to identify criminal trends, threats, and potential risks to public safety. They also collaborate with other law enforcement agencies to share information and coordinate efforts.
