REPORT: Vicente Gonzalez’s hypocrisy on the border

REPORT: Vicente Gonzalez's hypocrisy on the border

May 6, 2024

A new Fox News report this morning calls out Vicente Gonzalez for trying to cover his anti-border security tracks by joining a weak letter that does nothing to actually tackle the open southern border.

The truth is that Gonzalez is against border security. He has:

  • Voted against hiring more CBP agents and streamline the asylum process.
  • Voted against deploying improved technology to the southern border.
  • Voted against ending catch and release.
  • Voted against strengthening and streamlining the asylum process.
  • Voted against deporting illegal immigrants who lead Border Agents on a high-speed chase.
  • Voted against removing Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas (twice).
  • Cosponsored a bill to give amnesty to more than 2 million illegal immigrants.
  • Voted against legislation to combat the opioid crisis.
  • Voted against sharing criminal information with DHS authorities to deport illegal immigrants posing a public safety or national security risk.

"This letter from Vicente Gonzalez is merely just a campaign talking point, not a real solution to the Biden border crisis. Extreme Democrat Vicente Gonzalez isn't serious about fixing the problem - he's only worried about his political future." - NRCC Spokeswoman Delanie Bomar
