Iwas proud to be the first member of Congress to endorse Gov. Ron DeSantis for president of the United States. He is a bold conservative leader, a proven winner, and most importantly, a good man. He is the person we need — at the time we need him — to restore sanity and lead the great American comeback.
Nowhere is this more apparent than along our southern border. This week, I joined DeSantis in Eagle Pass, Texas, where he outlined a plan to secure the border once and for all. After visiting with a packed house of South Texans tired of words and desperate for leadership to end the chaos, secure their homes, and restore the rule of law against dangerous cartels, the governor was specific and clear. He will build the wall, fully enforce the law, stop the invasion, and take out the cartels — “No Excuses.”
DeSantis’ plan to finally secure the border and empower states like Texas to step into the breach shouldn’t surprise anyone. DeSantis has an unassailable record of supporting border security policies to protect Americans while opposing policies such as amnesty that would only make illegal immigration to America worse by rewarding those who violate our laws.
