The border crisis is not just a Texas problem—it's an American problem.

Illegal immigrants have attacked citizens across the country, and even police officers in NYC.

Mayor Adams should be focused on making the streets of New York safer for his people, instead of gimmicks.

Pres. Biden’s open border policies enable cartels to run human smuggling operations into the U.S.

I signed a law last year to crack down on human smuggling with a 10-year mandatory minimum jail sentence.

We continue to raise awareness and fight back against this heinous crime.
