Thank you to Vice President JD Vance, Secretary Hegseth, and Director Gabbard for showing up for us along the southern border today.
Texas Insider Report: AUSTIN, Texas – Congressman Tony Gonzales (TX-23) joined Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) yesterday to visit two border communities in Congressman Gonzales’ district, Del Rio and Eagle Pass. While at the border, the group took an aerial tour led by CBP, participated in a roundtable with CBP personnel, and received a briefing from Border Patrol and the Texas Air National Guard.
“Under President Biden the border was a disaster, and it was our communities that were at the eye of the storm. We all remember the Haitian caravan in Del Rio nearly four years ago or the thousands of illegal crossings that led to a shut down at the rail bridge in Eagle Pass last year. Fast forward to now and it’s a night and day difference,” said Congressman Tony Gonzales.
“Within hours of taking office, President Trump took decisive action. He declared drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, ended catch-and-release policies, and drove down illegal immigration to record lows. Thank you to Vice President JD Vance, Secretary Hegseth, and Director Gabbard for showing up for us along the southern border today.
"I look forward to working together to maintain law, order, and common-sense at our borders,” Gonzales said.
