Folks,
As a combat veteran, I learned that trust in authority grows from
accountability and respect for the people you serve.
Every officer who swears an oath carries a responsibility to protect their
community and uphold the law.
When those in power cross that line, it falls to all of us to respond.
[ [link removed] ]Today, I am launching a call to action with [other candidates and
advocacy organizations] urging governors, state attorneys general, and the
leadership of the Fraternal Order of Police to enforce their own state
laws and hold ICE agents accountable when they commit crimes.

When ICE agents assault civilians, destroy property, or detain people
illegally, those actions violate state and local codes.
They are crimes and must be prosecuted as such.
Across the country, ICE agents have raided homes without warrants,
zip-tied children in apartment hallways, and fired tear gas at peaceful
protesters and clergy.
They have broken into vehicles, damaged private property, and detained
American citizens during sweeps that never should have happened.
Our state and local police keep us safe every day, from every threat. We
trust them to protect us from bad actors within ICE as well. Nobody is
above the law.
And we can’t settle for prosecuting after the harm has been done. When ICE
agents are committing crimes in broad daylight, local officers have a duty
to intervene and arrest them. They must be fully empowered to do so.
Federal status does not erase state responsibility, and state convictions
cannot be pardoned by a president.
Every jurisdiction that enforces its own laws strengthens our democracy
and protects its residents.
Some state and local leaders have already pledged to prosecute ICE agents
who break the law. That courage must spread.
Texas, and every state across the country, deserves enforcement grounded
in accountability, transparency, and constitutional duty.
If you agree that law and order must apply to everyone who wears a badge,
join me in this action.
[ [link removed] ]Sign your name and tell your governor, attorney general, and local law
enforcement that accountability begins at home. Sign the letter: Hold ICE
accountable. Arrest ICE agents who break the law.
