We Have A Crisis.

Dear Texan,

In 2021, 1.7 million illegal immigrants crossed our southern border. President Biden's open border policies have resulted in an immigration crisis, a drug trafficking crisis, and a human trafficking crisis, all of which have harmed our local communities and put our citizens at risk. I am fighting to secure our border and protect the American people.

Under President Biden, the number of border crossings has risen at a faster rate than any other time in history. While the Administration refuses to call it a crisis, I...

Introduced the READI Act (Resist Executive Amnesty on Defense Installations Act) to prohibit the housing of illegal immigrants on military installations. The Biden Administration sought to solve the crisis they created by housing illegal immigrants on bases across the country. Sacrificing the readiness and safety of our service members and their families is unacceptable and will never be a solution.
Co-sponsored H.R.6299 to prohibit federal funds from being allocated to state or local governments that allow non-citizens to vote.
Prohibited the payment of $450,000 in taxpayer dollars to illegal immigrants.

While President Biden halted construction of the border wall, I...

Secured $4.8 billion in border wall funds last Congress.
Co-sponsored the REMAIN in Mexico Act of 2021 requiring illegal immigrants to return to Mexico while awaiting immigration proceedings.
Co-sponsored H.Res.502 to support Texas' independent construction of the border wall under Governor Abbott.

Under President Biden's immigration policies, human trafficking, drug trafficking and fentanyl deaths have hit record highs. To keep our communities safe I...

Introduced the Protection of Children Act to expedite the return process of unaccompanied alien children who have been abandoned at the southern border. This bill protects children and prevents them from becoming human trafficking victims at the border.
Co-sponsored the HALT Fentanyl Act to combat the spread of fentanyl. Seizures of this deadly drug at the border increased by 1,066% in fiscal year 2021.
Co-sponsored legislation to designate drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
