What is your top priority if elected?
Border security is an ongoing issue for this state and nation, and with Washington’s failure to act, we must do all we can to ensure our borders are secure and Texans are safe. It has been and will remain a top priority.
My top priority is to secure the border. There is a crisis at the southern border. I will fight to increase funding for border security to keep our communities safe. Another priority is to protect our elections so that the voices of Texans are accurately reflected in elections.
