One Step Closer to Unlocking President Trump's Agenda: House Passes Budget Resolution, FBI Stopping the Flow of Illegal Drugs
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON, D.C. – Last week, I proudly voted to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, to restore public confidence in our election system and close loopholes that enable non-citizens to register to vote. Americans deserve to know their elections will be safe and secure when they go to the ballot box. 208 House Democrats voted against this commonsense legislation, and their opposition underscores why we need this bill — to provide a line of defense against any fraudulent effort to bolster Democrats’ voting bloc.
Under federal law, it is illegal for non-citizens to vote in federal elections, yet the National Voter Registration Act prohibits states from verifying US citizenship when individuals register to vote. The SAVE Act corrects this by simply allowing states to require proof of citizenship when individuals register, and giving states tools to remove non-citizens from their voter rolls.The SAVE Act also gives individuals SIX ways to verify their identity — including REAL IDs, passports, military and tribal records — ensuring all American citizens have access to their ballot. I was proud to cosponsor and champion this important legislation to ensure your fundamental right to free and fair elections is protected.

Last week, the House passed the Budget Resolution — the first step toward unlocking President Trump's full agenda in the legislative branch. The Biden administration failed the American people, wasting your hard-earned tax dollars on out-of-control spending. American voters elected President Trump to put America First, and my Republican colleagues and I are dedicated to delivering on his full agenda.
We must act to prevent the largest tax increase on hard-working families in history, rebuild our military, secure our border, and put a stop to wasteful spending. I remain committed to getting America back on the path to prosperity for generations to come.
Promises Made Promises Kept: Stopping the Flow of Illegal Drugs
Last week, the FBI and the U.S. Coast Guard successfully intercepted a whopping 48,000 pounds of illegal drugs being trafficked internationally by cartels and criminal organizations. For too long, cartels have exploited weak border policies, flooding our nation with narcotics that threaten Americans' health and safety.
Under the Trump administration, the U.S. will not tolerate illegal drug trafficking. I am so grateful that the FBI and the Coast Guard are working hard every day to protect American lives!
