Gonzales, R-San Antonio, says he supports Gov. Greg Abbott move to arrest migrants involved in a violent border breach last month in El Paso.
TEXAS, USA — Congressman Tony Gonzales, R-San Antonio, says he believes Gov. Greg Abbott is right to send a message to migrants who may have been involved in a violent border breach last month in El Paso.
The El Paso County District Attorney says at least nine of those migrants also assaulted members of the Texas National Guard. “The word has to be out that that will not be allowed in Texas. So, I welcome the Governor’s response,” Congressman Gonzales told us on. “This is year four of this border crisis and people are exhausted, and they’re willing to try things that they weren’t willing to try two years ago. And there have to be repercussions for people’s actions.”
The U.S. Senate has already passed a $95 billion aid package that includes Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.Speaker Mike Johnson, R-Louisiana, has indicated he’ll soon allow a vote on Ukraine funding, angering the far-right faction of the Republican conference.
