National Border Patrol Council Endorses Congresswoman Monica De La Cruz for Her Leadership on Border Security and Support for Agents

McAllen, TX – Congresswoman Monica De La Cruz is proud to announce that she has been endorsed by the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC), in recognition of her steadfast commitment to border security and her tireless advocacy for Border Patrol agents and their families. 

“As someone who is honored to represent a border community and thousands of Border Patrol agents and their families, I am deeply grateful for the support of the National Border Patrol Council,” said Congresswoman De La Cruz. “In Congress, I have made it a priority to work across the aisle to pass legislation that strengthens our borders and protects our communities from the devastating effects of drugs like fentanyl. I am proud to have worked to pass legislation strengthening America’s borders, including measures specifically designed to combat the fentanyl crisis.” 

NBPC President Paul Perez praised Congresswoman De La Cruz as a tireless advocate for those who serve on the front lines of our nation’s border security. “Monica De La Cruz is a hard-working, effective member of Congress who has consistently fought for Border Patrol agents, their families, and our national security,” said Perez. “Her dedication to ensuring our agents have the support they need, and her leadership in securing our borders, makes her an invaluable ally in our mission to protect America’s borders.” 

Congresswoman De La Cruz has been a national leader in advocating for border security, ensuring that the men and women who protect our borders have the resources and recognition they deserve. Additionally, she has also shown deep compassion for the families of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. 

In 2023, De La Cruz successfully worked on legislation to honor the memory of Agent Raul H. Gonzalez, Jr. by naming a federal building after him. This tribute serves as a lasting reminder of his service and sacrifice, ensuring that his legacy endures. Congresswoman De La Cruz remains committed to securing our borders, supporting law enforcement, and working collaboratively in Congress to deliver results for the people of South Texas and all Americans.
