The National Border Patrol Council, the country’s largest union of Border Patrol officers, has endorsed Ken Paxton for Senate. This comes after Paxton, Texas’ current attorney general, won the Republican primary with the help of a last-minute endorsement from President Donald Trump.
Border Security
Paxton has been a strong advocate for border security, suing the Biden administration over 100 times, many of which were related to border security. The National Border Patrol Council praised Paxton for his efforts, saying he has always fought to uphold the rule of law and support those on the front lines.
Meanwhile, Democratic candidate James Talarico is running a close race against Paxton, with a recent poll showing them tied at 47% support among likely voters in Texas. Talarico has been criticized for his past comments, including saying that God is nonbinary and that there are six biological sexes.
