· Texas Border Business
U.S. Senator John Cornyn from Texas announced that he leveraged his Senate influence to secure the release of over $10 billion in border security funding previously approved by Congress. Frustrated by delays in reimbursement for Texas border security expenses, Cornyn decided to use his vote as a bargaining tool while Congress was discussing President Trump's immigration spending bill. After discussions with Senate Republican leaders, he received confirmation from White House budget director Russ Vought that the funds would be released. Cornyn emphasized the importance of using legislative power to achieve policy goals.
