Today, Congressman Tony Gonzales (TX-23) visited Eagle Pass, Texas, to discuss the ongoing immigration crisis and propose a path forward. Joined by Border Patrol Agents, local officials, and renowned entrepreneur Elon Musk, Congressman Gonzales emphasized the urgent need for action and the importance of shedding light on the issue.
"My border district is in a state of crisis. Over the past two weeks, tens of thousands of migrants have arrived illegally with no end in sight. This is a national security and humanitarian disaster, and the need for action is no different than when a hurricane strikes. Yet, Washington's response has been to point fingers, stall on solutions, and grind our government to a halt," said Representative Tony Gonzales.
During his visit, Congressman Gonzales engaged in productive discussions with Border Patrol Agents, local officials, and Elon Musk, who has emerged as a prominent advocate for resolving the border crisis. Musk's attention to the southern border issue has surpassed that of the President, and Congressman Gonzales expressed confidence that his coverage will bring greater awareness to all Americans.
"Border communities are tired of the broken promises and empty rhetoric coming out of Washington. The time to act is now," added Congressman Gonzales.
