Tejana. Fronteriza. Proudly representing El Paso in the U.S. House of Representatives.
The question is - will a handful of Republicans join Democrats to ensure that happens?

We should not be running Venezuela - especially at a time when the American people are suffering under Trump’s disastrous economic policies. Congressional Republicans must join us to reassert our authority and hold this administration accountable.

The drug trafficking accusation is a ruse. Donald Trump and JD Vance’s own statements acknowledge the real reason behind this illegal attack: their gluttonous pursuit of oil.

Maduro is a criminal and an oppressive tyrant. But that is not what this is about.

Attempts at regime change have historically come at incredible costs to our country, our people, and our reputation abroad. This is one of the reasons why Congress should have been involved.

I’ve never traded stocks and as long as I’m in public office, I never will.

That’s why I’ve signed onto a bipartisan petition to ban stock trading by members of Congress and their families.

From their denial of true oversight visits to the cruel treatment of detainees at this facility, it is abundantly clear Camp East Montana is not being effectively or humanely operated.

Never before has an administration so carelessly made a mockery of the rule of law while hypocritically championing values like law and order.

Despite claims from DHS about the inhumane, abhorrent conditions at facilities like Camp East Montana being "categorically false," my own visits and discussions with detainees prove otherwise.

ICE did not notify Congress directly until nearly a week after the death and hours after my office inquired with relevant Congressional committees earlier today.
