The Texas legislature formed Karnes County on this day in 1854. It is an honor to represent Karnes in Congress! 🇺🇸

This is unacceptable. South Texans and the American people need a thorough account of how, exactly, a Chinese spy balloon was allowed to hover over US airspace for days and what actions are being taken to prevent this. My office is demanding answers from The White House.

I look forward to having Texas State Representative and his lovely wife join me at next week’s State of the Union address. South Texans are showing that leaders from both parties can work together to move our country forward.

El socialismo es un cáncer ideológico que le ha arruinado la vida a innumerables hispanos y millones alrededor del mundo.
Si quieren ver la diferencia entre el socialismo y la libertad, es muy sencillo: las balsas nunca van hacia Cuba.
¡En Texas, creemos en la LIBERTAD!

I proudly supported today’s resolution condemning socialism, an evil ideology that has brought unspeakable horror and exile to millions of Hispanics and people across the world.
Churchill called it a philosophy of failure and the gospel of envy.
South Texas stands for freedom.

It was wrong for the Biden administration to force our health care workers to choose between jabs and their jobs. This failed policy had no basis in science — and today I voted to end it.

Let us remember today the millions of men, women, and children who perished in the Holocaust. We must never forget the atrocities they endured. South Texas is a community built on love. We stand firmly against antisemitism.

I appreciate The White House inviting me to a party, but as I told the president, our country has too many challenges that need my attention. Besides, I have a call with my kids at that time — and I'm more of a Shiner Bock and Taco Palenque girl, anyway.

Earlier today I had the honor of presenting my first bill in Congress. This bipartisan measure will name a USPS facility in McAllen after Raul H. Gonzalez Jr., a Border Patrol agent we lost last month. Our community loves our men and women in green. myrgv.com/local-news/202
