AUSTIN – U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) released the following statement in response to Vice President and Border Czar Kamala Harris’ trip to Houston, Texas:

“Vice President Kamala Harris’ visit to Texas just ahead of Election Day is too little, too late for Texans who have had to endure more than three and a half years of her reckless open-border policies and the worst inflation in decades.”

“Millions of migrants have illegally entered our country under Border Czar Harris’ watch, including two in Houston – where Harris is visiting – who raped and murdered 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray. Of course, today she will not address that or the flow of deadly drugs like fentanyl that have killed more than 100,000 of our fellow Americans in just one year alone. Instead, she will make a tone-deaf attempt to shift the focus away from her many failures as second-in-command.”
