Trip to the border...   Irving, TX - Happy New Year! I hope you had a restful New Year's Day with your family and friends. I'm looking forward to a productive 2024! This week, I visited Eagle Pass, Texas to speak with local law enforcement officers and landowners about the urgent and ongoing border security disaster. I heard heartbreaking stories from those closest to the crisis about the lives impacted by the Biden Administration's failed policies. I'm committed to forcing President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas to protect Texans and all Americans from the countless threats caused by the open border.

Later this week, I honored the winners of the 2023 Congressional App Challenge. This competition encouraged participants to learn to code through the creation of their own original apps. Congratulations to Anika, Cody and Eric, and Daham!
