WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Tony Gonzales (TX-23) last Thursday led a Congressional delegation to visit the southern border in Eagle Pass and Del Rio. All members who attended are members of the Republican Study Committee. During the visit, the delegation met with law enforcement, border patrol agents, local sheriffs and mayors, and toured the Eagle Pass DHS detention facility.

“The biggest takeaway from today was that we have folks that are career law enforcement agents and they are seeing spikes that they have never seen before,” said Congressman Gonzales. “When you hear this from someone who has been doing this job for 35 years – not just once, but over and over again – things are spiraling out of control at a record pace.”
