Americans across the country have had enough of this administration putting other countries ahead of our own. It's past time Democrats in Washington step up and prioritize our southern border that has been so woefully neglected by this administration. That is why on Tuesday, I introduced the Border Patrol First Act, which puts America first and prioritizes funding for our southern border over those of other countries. The Border Patrol First Act would stop the Biden Administration from giving $240 million in new assistance funding for migrants across South America and will instead go towards CBP to secure our southern border. It will also reimburse Texas and Arizona for their efforts in securing their states due to the Biden’s Administration’s failed response at the border.

We have seen where wasteful government spending has gotten us. Our national debt just passed $31 trillion and inflation is at a 41-year high. Hardworking Americans deserve better – that is why I introduced the Government Offices Realignment and Closure Act (GORAC) today, which will drastically reduce the wasteful spending that's been lost in the bog of our bloated federal government and instead put it towards lowering our national debt.You can read more about GORAC here.
On Wednesday, I had a great tour of Peerless Electric, a small business in Euless, TX. We discussed their concerns about inflation and increased transportation costs and how we can address them in Congress.
