Very good.
And your last question.
Should state funds be used for border management?
Okay.
I expected this to come up.
It's Texas, right?
But um, so far that's being done right now through
Operation Lone Star.
If you look at the history upon where that funding
came from, funding for Operation Lone Star came right around
the same time we severely started splashing um money for
our uh our mental uh mental health care and for
our our public schools.
So it's it's one of those things where I understand
the concern, but you have to understand that this is
a congressional issue.
I understand that, like I said earlier, we are the
eighth largest economy in the world, we are, but that
still does not compare to the rest of the entirety
of the United States of America.
We do have a border problem.
My mother works for CBB.
I I I do see the issue, but the way
we fix this is having our congressional members fund our
border patrol.
That did not happen recently, by the way.
Donald Trump came out and he asked a bipartisan bill
that would have funded our CDP, our customs and border
patrol.
These politicians in Congress are playing games.
The Republicans at the congressional level, they don't want to
actually fix these problems.
They just want something to complain about because that's what
gets them votes.
So if you really want to fix our border crisis,
you better be talking to your your congressmen.
All right.
They're the ones who have more money than tax systems,
and they're all the ones together who really need to
come together to fix this problem.
Aside from that, I don't want to demonize anyone of
Hispanic uh resemblance or say that we're being invaded.
I strongly stand against that kind of rhetoric.
Especially the my my extended family are Hispanics.
My sister-in-law, for example, is from Honduras.
Now she came here, she has a couple of kids
here.
She came here through the natural process.
But I know the more and more that we talk
about saying that all these people who don't look like
me are invading this area, that hurts people like my
sister-in-law.
And that's not fair to them.
So I believe that we should pay attention to the
border issue
I also believe we should be humane about it.
Thank you.
