These brave soldiers and troopers have built border barriers, arrested and jailed illegal crossers, and seized enough fentanyl to kill every man, woman and child [in] the United States, Mexico and Canada combined. We're joined tonight by members of our National Guard and DPS who served on the border. Join me in thanking them for their service to secure our state. (21:11–21:32)
