Immigration
Sharing over one thousand miles of border with Mexico, Texas is a border state like none other in the country. Strengthened by our relationship with our neighbors, our state experiences both unique benefits and unique challenges. Congresswoman Crockett works to update our outdated immigration systems, so that those seeking a better live in the United States can do so. Crockett believes that border security and comprehensive reform go hand-in-hand, and strives to ensure that Dreamers and undocumented Texans are on a straightforward path to citizenship.
