We will NOT wait for the Biden-Harris administration to do something about the humanitarian crisis on our southern border. Under my leadership, we've appropriated more than $3 billion to secure our border. Where Washington fails, Texas stands up. https://t.co/pjtbCbcfYC

Proud of these latest TX House priorities. Addressing our state<U+2019>s border crisis is a must-pass issue this session. Thank you to Reps. @GoldmanCraig, @RyanGuillen, @DavidCookTexas, @RepMattSchaefer, @JaredLPatterson, @leachfortexas & @ColeHefnerTX for filing these bills. #txlege https://t.co/1Uqm4P0z3t
The crisis happening at our border can<U+2019>t be overstated. Over just the past few days, we<U+2019>ve seen a large group of migrants appear to rush a port of entry in El Paso, U.S. Border Patrol agents rescue a family with 2 infants on the Rio Grande River & Mexico<U+2019>s president ... (1/5)
Today I joined Gov Abbott & my #txlege colleagues to announce state investment to construct border walls and barriers. We need a TX solution to a DC problem. I will soon issue interim charges to House committees to address the humanitarian crisis at our border. Stay tuned.
#HB7 to combat our state<U+2019>s border crisis & #HB800 to crack down on human smuggling just officially passed the TX House. Thank you @RyanGuillen & @RepMattSchaefer for your hard work on border security issues this session. #txlege
My staff received word from @TexasHHSC just now that The Refuge has been placed under emergency closure. #txlege https://t.co/Efnp7PY890
This Gov candidate admits his idea would hurt Texas. We need serious solutions to border security and the humanitarian crisis. I will be releasing interim charges soon to House committees that take a meaningful, impactful & respectful approach to these issues. 1/2 #txlege https://t.co/fWL6jXgxT9
Thank you for sharing with me what you<U+2019>re seeing firsthand about the impacts of border security in Hidalgo Co. and how we can keep up the pressure in order to keep communities safe,@SheriffGuerra. We got your back. #txlege https://t.co/oigWNH8WpX
Truly securing our border & fortifying our ports of entry can prevent these types of tragedies from happening. It<U+2019>s time for bold, innovative solutions - & the TX House has them. #HB7 & #HB20, 2 of my top priorities, will help prevent victimization & keep these communities safe. https://t.co/r1fc8HDbTt
Republicans have an opportunity to re-capture the U.S. House and Senate majority on Nov. 8th. Going back to 2015, Texas has invested ~ $7 billion to secure the border. Source: @FiveThirtyEight https://t.co/hGmi666fS9
