Greetings,
This week, I was proud to work on legislation with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to help ensure the safety and security of the American people by empowering the states to block the resettlement of refugees within their borders.
After the horrific attacks in Paris and San Bernardino, it would be downright reckless not to take steps to protect ourselves from the threat of terrorist infiltration. As we all have seen, it takes just one jihadist to cause enormous damage and take countless lives.
I remain committed to unapologetically defending America's national security interests.
Please keep reading for an update on the latest in the Senate.
