    I signed a law that makes it easier to prosecute human smugglers in Texas. The Texas Dept. of Public Safety, along with the Texas Guard, will be arresting anyone caught smuggling illegal immigrants into our state. They will be put behind bars, no catch & release.

    Biden's vaccine mandate is unconstitutional. Period. Texans shouldn't be forced to choose between their livelihood & a vaccine. I'm confident the Lone Star State will win any legal showdown my Executive Order may bring.

    Good news: Southwest Airlines Scraps Plan To Force Unvaccinated Workers Into Unpaid Leave. More businesses are realizing vaccine mandates are wrong. My ban on vaccine mandates gives cover to these employers and empowers employees.

    Texas has thousands of Texas Guard & Texas Dept. of Public Safety officers deployed to secure the border. We’re building a border wall. The Biden Administration has abandoned the people who live on the border, but Texas is keeping them & communities across the state safe.

    Texas is the nation’s least expensive state to run a business in. The Lone Star State prioritizes business-friendly policies to promote economic development. There’s no better place for business than Texas!
